Board of Directors

Josh Goode developed a passion for Horticulture early on while attending Naaman Forest High School in Garland, which led to him obtaining a B.S. in Horticulture Science from Texas Tech University. Josh joined the Sam Hill Tree Care team in 2018 after working with firms such as SavATree in Washington D.C. and Bartlett Tree Experts in Austin. Goode is a Board Certified Master Arborist specializing in pruning and plant healthcare within the high-end residential landscape.

For over 10 years "Josh Goode the tree dude" has helped homeowners by providing the most up to date pruning and plant healthcare solutions for their landscapes. This passion for proper horticulture has led to a series of "Tree Talks" and YouTube videos put together for homeowners, property managers, and horticulture students. Goode has made it his mission to educate the masses on proper vs improper maintenance methods and will be serving as the Trinity Blacklands Urban Forestry Conference President for 2023.
