A trusted partner for tree care, forest restoration, and wildfire readiness. ForestScapes LLC was built to help property owners protect what matters most. From residential lots to larger rural properties, we provide practical solutions that support safer homes, healthier forests, and cleaner, more usable land. Our work is guided by careful planning, the right equipment for the job, and a steady focus on safety from start to finish.
Since 1987, Dave has designed and implemented more than 20 miles of regionally strategic shaded fuel breaks, and many dozens of defensible-space projects for his neighbors in northwestern California. This was accomplished with his crew at Full Circle Forestry, the company he started in 1991. Among his experience, he planted trees commercially for 20 years, built and maintained trails on federal lands for four years, and received his California Timber Operator License (LTO) in 1991.
Our mission is to foster sustainable forest management practices that prioritize the employment of local communities, enhance forest health, and mitigate fire hazards. We are committed to adapting to the changing needs of the forest ecosystem while honoring and implementing indigenous practices, thus creating resilient landscapes that benefit both people and nature.
