Olive Trees - Don’t Mind Me, I’m Growing Out My Canopy!
November, 2025

If you’ve noticed some of our olive trees looking a little wild, don’t worry - it’s all part of the plan! The Board is working with our landscapers to let many of the olive trees return to their natural shapes.

This change will give our community more shade without planting new trees, and it’ll also cut down on maintenance since we won’t need to keep trimming them into tight spheres. 

Because the trees have been heavily pruned for years, it’ll take some time for their canopies to fill out. Once they do, the landscapers will carefully shape and lift them for a neat, natural look. 

Thanks for your patience as our trees stretch their limbs and grow! 🌳
