Vincent Provencal

Vinc has been a member of the team at TTS since the spring of 2022. Yes, his first season with the team was right after Eastern Ontario was hit by the Derecho. We kept telling him that the workload was unusual and that things should get back to normal soon. But, that didn’t bother Vinc, he stayed with the team. A few years later, he is now an indispensable team leader.

Vinc was born and raised in Hearst and became an avid hunter and angler. After high school, he went to la Cité for the 2-year machinist program, but decided to follow in the footsteps of his father and grandfather and became a heavy equipment mechanic. He worked 10 years as a mechanic, including 7 in camps located in northern Alberta and British Columbia.

After having 2 boys one after the other, Vinc decided it was time to spend more time with the family at home and it was time to try something new. After the storm of spring 2022, he said to himself that if anyone wanted to get into the tree business, this was the opportunity, and he did the career change. He confirms (and we quote): “It was the best decision I ever made”; and TTS couldn't agree more!
