ABOUT

AVES is a value-driven company that offers ecological expertise to the private homeowner. 

Our main focus is residential tree planting that is aimed at fighting climate change. We rank the potential of different trees to reduce CO2 from the atmosphere, identify the best tree* for a given property and its ideal location, then provide easy-to-use directives to decentralize irrigation in order to optimize carbon efficiency.

AVES also offers maintenance services such as weeding for gardens and landscapes.

*Based on our latest mathematical models/formulas, the ecological requirements of the plants, their local availability, and other aesthetic and practical considerations

ABOUT THE FOUNDER

Patrick J. Turgeon

​My fascination with the natural world led me to pursue a profession in the environmental sciences. Along the way, I had the opportunity to work on many projects with several incredible people for organizations ranging from the Pulp and Paper Research Institute of Canada (Paprican) to Environment and Climate Change Canada.

Dissatisfied with the status quo towards environmental degradation and looking for a balance between computer work and manual work that I could not find anywhere, I decided to create my own path.

I put my expertise to use and founded AVES in order to offer tangible solutions to the ecological challenges we face.
