John,
I agree with your concern about nailing signs to trees. It is far
better to have posts on which to fix signs. Nails become imbedded into the tree
and can be hazzardous.
Paul Schwietz
I am a volunteer with a land conservation group. One common task for
voluteers is to walk the boundaries of newly-acquired or donated
properties and to put up signs to mark the boundaries. Historically,
members of the group have used wooden signs nailed into trees on the
property borders. I am wondering if there is an equally-effective
method
of posting a property without pounding nails into trees. Or am I being
a
little too anthropomorphic about the possible negative impacts of nails
being driven into trees?
Any advice or suggestions would be welcome. Thanks, John
