We’re putting a spotlight on Davey employees who are Living Our Values! Today, we’re featuring Jessica McCarthy, sales arborist, South Chicago office, for exemplifying our stewardship value. At Davey, the core value of stewardship is not just about how we care for the environment, but also about engaging with and caring for our communities. It’s one of the things that makes Jessica proud to be an employee-owner. Jessica recently shared her passion for arboriculture with young girls at a Girl Scouts of Greater Chicago and Northwest Indiana event. Engaging 50 Girl Scouts and their parents, she led a limb walking station that simulated the work of an arborist while climbing a tree. She also taught them basic lessons in tree anatomy using cross-sections from tree logs. “I think it’s important to educate the community and bring awareness to arboriculture because many people don't know what it is, and that there is an entire industry centered around taking care of trees,” Jessica said. “Everyone can relate to loving a particular tree or nature in general, and there are many career paths to explore.”

Jack Bloomfield, senior vice president, Lakes Region, U.S. Utility Services, recently retired after 48 years of service, but not before leaving behind some final words of wisdom. What is your advice for having a long and rewarding career at Davey? "One of my favorite sayings is “I work today for tomorrow." The product I produce today will ensure that I have a job tomorrow. I always worked hard and this company recognized that hard work. If you are offered an opportunity, look at it hard and take advantage of those opportunities. I took chances and was rewarded for it over the years."
