From the NHAA Website
"Dr. Alex Shigo became involved with the New Hampshire
Arborists Association in 1977. His primary mission was to, as
he put it "connect with the tree people in the field" as he knew
they had a great deal of information to give to him and he had
a great deal of information to give us. So, for the last 30 years,
Dr. Shigo has persisted in challenging us on understanding
trees and their associates.
