History
In 1873, John Davey at age 27 traveled from Europe to America and began working at Standing Rock Cemetery in Kent, Ohio. He transformed the cemetery with new plantings of trees, shrubs and flowers.
Davey planted hundreds of trees along the Kent streets and around homes in the community and performed a modest amount of tree work. He became determined to gain acceptance of his methods for the care of trees, and wrote a book.
In 1901, The Tree Doctor was published, a milestone in the career of John Davey and the science of tree preservation.
By 1915, Davey Tree was growing and expanding; during the period from 1915 to 1920, the company expanded more than fivefold. Today, the company has revenues of more than three-quarters of a billion USD.

Research and Development
John Davey was committed to improving the technology and tools needed to advance tree care research. His passion for scientific study led him to develop the Davey Institute of Tree Surgery in 1908. The training facility was staffed by experts and also provided employees with the skills and tools needed to advance tree science. Today, the company still provides basic tree science as the educational foundation for its employees.
Scientists and technical advisors at The Davey Institute guide field service teams in diagnosing and prescribing products, application procedure, and pest and disease cultural practices. The company also assists college students in the green industry through its Arbor Day Grants.
Davey Tree also partners with organizations to advance tree-care science and provide community outreach programs promoting tree maintenance, such as American Forests, International Society of Arboriculture, Tree Care Industry Association, and TREE Fund through programs like the National Register of Big Trees and fundraisers like Tour des Trees.
