Our Story
Three Generations of Excellence. Deeply Rooted in Highlands County.
​
The Story:
​
In 1964, Leroy Hinote began a legacy of tree care right here in Lorida. He wasn't just cutting trees; he was shaping our community—personally transplanting many of the iconic trees you still see today in the medians and parks of Spring Lake.
In 2004, the business evolved as Vernon Hinote incorporated Atlas Tree Corporation, further cementing our commitment to Highlands County. Today, Trevor Hinote leads the third generation, blending that decades-old family wisdom with the industry’s most advanced technology.
