About Us

Hello!

I am Ryley, the owner at Knotty Tree Care. I love working with trees and started out in arboriculture as a climber and “tree surgeon” in British Columbia in 2004.

I started Knotty Tree Care because I love working outside, climbing trees, meeting people around my community and helping them make the most of their trees. My goal with KTC is to build a resilient business doing what I love and which supports my family and community, provides meaningful growth and career/ownership opportunities for crew, promotes environmental awareness and community support and continually seeks out new ways to make the most of our tree assets.

Based in Port Williams, NS, serving all of the Annapolis Valley, the HRM and South Shore, we are a local small business that delivers big results. We can take care of your tree service needs no matter how big or small and intend to be a part of our Nova Scotia communities for the long term. We apply that intention to every job we do.

Check out our “Services” page for more information on our experience, approach and the ways we can help you manage the risks and enjoy the benefits of trees!

I am always happy to discuss your tree care concerns or questions and how we can resolve them!
