St. Edward, NE: Tree Work in the Beaver Valley

St. Edward is a city of about 725 people in Boone County, Nebraska, 31.2 road miles and about 39 minutes northwest of Columbus on NE-39, in the Beaver Creek valley at about 1,670 feet. The townsite was bought from the Union Pacific in August 1871, and its post office went by Waterville from 1874.

In 1877 it was renamed for Father Edward Sorin, founder of Notre Dame, and it incorporated on October 6, 1884; a state marker calls it the only town of the name in the country. Creek bottoms hold cottonwood, walnut and willow, and the farms above keep redcedar and pine windbreaks, elms, maples and dead ash.

Thirty-Nine Minutes Out NE-39

St. Edward is the northwest end of our list, and we make it without a trip charge. Jenna groups it with Lindsay and Genoa work so the estimate date stays quick.

Creek-Bottom Cottonwoods

The cottonwoods and walnuts along Beaver Creek root shallow in soft ground and lean toward the water. A leaner over a house comes down in sections on ropes from the dry side.

Shelterbelts on the Upland

The redcedar and pine rows around Boone County farmsteads are dying of age and pine wilt. We take out the dead trees, keep the row working as a windbreak and chip the brush on site.

A City With Its Own Ordinances

St. Edward writes its own ordinances, separate from Columbus's. A tree wholly on your lot is your call; for a tree over a city street we suggest a quick call to the city office, and outside town a brush pile needs a rural fire district burn permit.
