About Us


It is our goal to make your experience with Urban Tree Management significantly different than any other tree service. We are a service-focused business, meaning that we aim to meet the client’s needs throughout the contracting experience. Growing and expanding is not our objective. We don’t want to be the only tree service in Madison, but we want to be the best tree service in Madison. Our focus is never going to selling more work; pushing unnecessary services; or offering anything but the most informed, objective, and professional advice. We want you to be pleased with the trees on your property and see ourselves as facilitators to that end.

Owner: Evan Slocum:

Owner/Manager/Arborist Evan Slocum is the person you will talk to when you call; he is the one you will meet with to discuss your tree care needs; and he is the one that will be up in the tree making sure the work is done right.
