Tree Care for Selah’s Orchards, Yards and Acreage
Selah sits in the heart of Yakima Valley fruit country. Known as the “Apple Juice Capital of the World” and home to Tree Top, the city is surrounded by orchards, and many Selah properties still have apple, cherry and pear trees in the backyard. These trees need regular dormant-season pruning to stay productive, and older or declining fruit trees often need to come out to make room for new plantings or other uses.
In Selah’s established neighborhoods, mature shade trees such as maples, elms and cottonwoods have grown large over the decades. They provide welcome shade in the summer heat, but big limbs over roofs, driveways and fences need regular trimming and periodic health checks.
Out toward the Wenas Valley and the rural edges of town, larger lots and acreage bring different needs: clearing brush and overgrowth, removing old orchard trees, keeping fence lines and ditches clear along Wenas Creek and other irrigation channels, and thinning trees and brush to create wildfire defensible space around homes and outbuildings.
Weather and Tree Risks in Selah
Like the rest of the Yakima Valley, Selah has hot, dry summers, cold winters and seasonal windstorms. Drought stress weakens trees that aren’t getting deep, regular water, and wind can bring down dead limbs and split weak trees. Winter snow and ice add weight to branches. Regular pruning and a quick inspection of large trees near your home before storm season are the best ways to prevent damage.
