We would like to say thank you to The Wildlife Group, and in particular our good friend Allen Deese, and Eddie for 20 years of partnership and even more importantly friendship. Good luck to you both in your future adventures.
All good things must come to an end. Twenty-plus years of running The Wildlife Group have been nothing but a blessing. We've achieved so much, from planting millions of trees to working with great people. The experiences I've had and the people I've met are something most people dream of. I hope that our work and the trees we've planted will endure for generations to come.
As I leave The Wildlife Group to work with Native Forest Nursery, I want to assure you that I am not abandoning our shared mission. My number will remain the same, and I will soon have new email info. I am still here to help with planting tips, answer questions, and assist with finding trees for future plantings. Please look for future emails and contact information from Native Forest Nursery.
The Wildlife Group will continue to thrive. We have some very nice inventory for this coming season. Pears, Apples, Crabapples, Chestnuts, as well as many species of oaks and other trees. I encourage each of you to call or come down and select the trees for your farm. This year could be the last opportunity to visit the nursery and pick up some of the trees that we have grown and singled out as top producers.
To close this out, I want to express my deepest gratitude to Jackie Yarbrough and Kandis Mills. Their support in the office and their dedication to covering my responsibilities for years have been invaluable. They have truly gone above and beyond, and I cannot thank them enough for always having my back and keeping our customers happy.
Oh yeah, and Eddie Stinson! My right-hand man, my partner in crime, comedian, best friend, the one man I always had to have my back, no matter what. And over the years, we had a bunch of no matter what—like Eddie always told me, 'It's a great day to get paid and have this much fun.' I'll miss him every day, but I'll never forget the good times we shared and all the friends we've made. I encourage everyone to make one last trip to the nursery and shake his hand. He is one hell of a good man and friend.
One last, Thank You to Beck Turf and all its employees for always being available to us. There is no way that we could have lasted that long without them. Thank you all !!! Allen Deese
