Why Proper Mangrove Pruning Matters
Mangroves aren’t just trees—they’re the backbone of Florida’s coastal health. Their roots protect against erosion, filter runoff, and provide critical habitat for marine life. But they’re also protected by law.
Legal Protection:
Florida’s Mangrove Trimming and Preservation Act regulates how and when mangroves can be trimmed.
Environmental Impact:
Incorrect pruning can damage sensitive ecosystems and destabilize coastlines.
Property Protection:
Healthy mangroves reduce storm surge and protect shorelines from damage.
That’s why partnering with a professional team like Joshua Tree Inc. is essential. We understand the science, the regulations, and the responsibility.
