About Elizabeth Baylis
ISA Certified Arborist, Urban Forester Professional, PPQ, TRAQ
For nearly two decades, I've worked hands-on with trees, landowners, municipalities, and natural areas across the East Coast. My approach blends scientific training with a genuine love for local ecology and long-term stewardship.
​
I'm here to help you understand your trees - their health, their risks, and their needs - so you can care for your land confidently and sustainably.
Why Hire a Consulting Arborist?
A consulting arborist provides an independent, science-based assessment of tree health, structure, and long-term safety. Unlike removal companies, consulting arborists do not sell tree work. This allows you to receive clear, unbiased guidance focused entirely on what your trees need-not what someone wants to sell you.​
​
Whether you are concerned about risk, planning construction, restoring a landscape, or caring for mature trees, a consulting arborist helps you make informed decisions rooted in tree biology and regional ecology. The result is reduced risk, healthier trees, and a long-term stewardship you can feel confident about.
