Project Overview: The Fargo Park District Forestry Department and contracted pruning companies work together to maintain our tree population in the winter to keep them healthy, safe, and growing properly. During winter, trees are dormant, which means pruning causes less stress and damage. Cold temperatures also reduce the spread of insects and diseases that could enter through fresh cuts. Without leaves, it is easier to see the tree’s structure and remove problem branches. This timing helps trees grow stronger and healthier when spring arrives.
