Stellenbosch: trees, weather and gardens
Stellenbosch is known for its oak-lined streets, and many of those oaks are now old and in decline. Dorp Street, the university area and the older town below Papegaaiberg carry big oaks and planes, while wine farms in the Jonkershoek and Banhoek valleys add stone pines, gum windbreaks and avenues. The polyphagous shot hole borer has been found in trees in the Western Cape, and dying oaks and other host trees are a concern for owners. Hot dry summers bring fire risk on the mountain edges. Requests come from homes, estates, the university, farms and businesses at Technopark. Heritage rules apply in the old town, so check before cutting.

- Farms, smallholdings and plantations: a PTO chipper for orchard prunings, wattle and windbreak trimmings
- Estates, complexes and body corporates: chipping branches on site so the complex sends fewer loads to the dump
