    Looking for advice on becoming an arborist

    lurking women, care to introduce yourselves?

    lurking women, care to introduce yourselves?

    Hello, my name is Kristin Hammond, I'll be 30 this year. I'm from a small town in N.E Oklahoma called Tahlequah. I'm fairly new to tree care, have been in it a year now but I've been hooked since day one. I've started climbing now and couldn't imagine doing anything else.
