Hansen’s Tree Service Helps with Schmittel’s Nursery’s Fall Festival

September 24, 2007: ST. LOUIS, Mo.— Hansen’s Tree Service is partnering with Schmittel’s Nursery to host a fall festival, offering advice from arborists as well as family-friendly activities, on Saturday, Sept. 29, 2007.

The event will take place at Schmittel’s, located at 13801 Marine Avenue in Maryland Heights, from 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Hansen’s Garden Hotline will broadcast live from 9 a.m. to 11 a.m.

“At Hansen’s, we’re committed to continuing education and professional certification programs to provide the best service to our customers,” Jeff Hansen, President of Hansen’s Tree Service, said. “Events like this help us share our knowledge with others to ensure the safety and beauty of the trees in our community.”

The event will include food and beverages, a petting zoo, clowns and face painters for the kids. The Hansen's “famous” Limb-A-Nator Monster truck will be on display.
