Tree crown reduction is a careful pruning technique where we trim back the outer branches of a tree's canopy to reduce its overall size, not just its height. This helps maintain the tree's natural shape while making it safer during storms and allowing more sunlight to reach your garden. It's a more balanced alternative to topping, which can harm the tree long-term.
