I created and started writing this blog in May 2010, in celebration of 18 years working as a forest scientist or silvologist.

I write all the posts and administer the blog myself. I welcome comment and feedback, and will attempt to reply whenever possible. Comments are moderated before publishing and I reserve the right not to show those that: are personally insulting to me, other individuals, and/or organisations; contain deliberately inflammatory references; contain abusive, racist, or sexist statements.

Any purchase you make helps support my work in bringing you well-researched and trustworthy information about trees and the environment. Read my Disclosure.

Welcome to Gabriel Hemery's tree blog with news, opinions, information and tips. Science, photography, books, art, practice, and more - all with a focus on trees.

This is my personal website and blog. The opinions expressed here are independent from those of my employer and any organisation with which I am connected.
