Nurseries provide the trees and shrubs used in windbreaks, while tree farms specialize in the production of windbreak trees. Installation contractors provide the labor and equipment necessary to install windbreaks. Companies in the Windbreak market also provide services such as windbreak design, maintenance, and removal.
