Local & Insured
Fairfield is a town of about 760 people in Teton County, Montana, 36.7 road miles and about 43 minutes northwest of Great Falls on US-89. It began as a Milwaukee Railroad station, had three dams and canals by 1920 and Gibson Dam in 1929, and the Greenfields Irrigation District now waters about 83,000 acres, hence the Malting Barley Capital of the World.
Fairfield also holds a record that explains broken trees: on December 14, 1924, the temperature fell from 63 degrees at noon to 21 below at midnight, the largest twelve-hour drop ever measured in the country. That chinook whiplash splits bark and kills limbs on the ash, Siberian elm, spruce and caragana around town.

Stumps ground below grade so the lawn comes back. Old cottonwood and boxelder roots run wide here, so we check for sprinkler lines before we grind. See the full details, including typical pricing →

Deadwood, hazard limbs and snow-load thinning on boxelders and Siberian elms, plus sidewalk and street clearance. We do not top trees. See the full details, including typical pricing →

Shelterbelt rows, benchland juniper, river-bottom brush and acreage lots cleared, with burn permits and chip-or-haul decided up front. See the full details, including typical pricing →
Why a Great Falls Crew Comes to Fairfield
The northwest end of our list, with no trip charge. Fairfield estimates ride with Dutton and Simms work.
Sixty-degree swings in a day split bark on the sunny side of ash and elms. We look for frost cracks and dead leaders before storm season and clear hazard limbs over the house.
Willow, cottonwood and elm along the Greenfields canals and the barley-field rows lean and thin with age. Ramon keeps machines off the ditch bank and chips the brush on site.
Fairfield is incorporated with its own ordinances, so a tree over a town street starts with the town office, and we pass on what they say. Teton County handles burn permits.
City boulevard, burning and town-office rules: see our permits page.
