Our Team

Jerome Matamoros

Owner/ ISA certified Arborist

With a focus on best practices and continuing education, Jerome provides clients with a knowledge based, safe approach to caring for trees. As a second generation arborist, he has been learning about trees his whole life from his mother. Jerome started out in horticulture but later narrowed his focus to arboriculture. He started apprenticing in arboriculture in Toronto in 2010. This taught him the skills to work in tight spaces and under difficult conditions, as well as how to care for a varied number of tree species in myriad conditions. In 2017, following the birth of his first child with wife Lindsay Matamoros, he moved his family to the Barrie area then to Coldwater a few years later, and has been serving Simcoe county and surrounding areas ever since.
