The Work

What You'd Be Learning

Passion For Trees handles large, hazardous, tactical tree removals along with complete tree care, pruning, and tree climbing across Southington, Cheshire, Bristol and the surrounding towns.

That is the work you would be learning — rigging and lowering, safe saw work, chipper and equipment operation, job site setup and cleanup, and tree climbing and aerial work as your skills develop.

You would learn it on real job sites, from a team that has been doing this for 39 years.

Why Passion For Trees

Year-Round Work and a Trade Worth Learning

Tree work in Connecticut is often seasonal. This position is not — Passion For Trees runs year-round, so the work continues through the winter as well as the summer.

You would be learning directly from Richard R. Ferreira, Licensed Arborist CT # S4559 and owner of Passion For Trees LLC.

We don't just take them down. We take care of them too. That is how this company has worked for 39 years, and it is what an apprentice here learns.

Who We're Looking For

Willing to Learn, Willing to Work

This is an apprenticeship, so the most important thing you bring is the willingness to learn a physical trade and show up for it.

Tree work is outdoor work in all weather, it is physical, and safety matters more than speed. If that sounds like the job you want, get in touch.

The specifics — experience, licences, schedule and pay — are best talked through directly. Call 203-305-5842, or send your details through the contact form and we will get back to you.
