It was James and Al who accompanied me throughout its formative stages, always there as I wielded a boombox and case of cassettes alongside my long-handled shovel and loppers.

The farmers and their helpers went into the fields armed with specialized shears, called loppers, to untether the plants from the ground and strip them of their leaves.

Sometimes a branch just has to be sawed because it’s too thick for hand pruners or even loppers.

So Adams found another neglected park and trudged into the woods with his tree loppers.

They had covered the floors with tarps, and spread out knives, loppers, and combs on wooden work tables.
