Abstract
The present invention provides a portable tree table that includes two sub-assemblies: a tree belt and bracket assembly, and a table assembly. In use, the tree belt is first tightened about a tree to dispose the bracket at the desired height and adjusted. Then the table assembly is mounted to the bracket. Further adjustments are then made, including extending against the tree and securing stabilizing braces. Disassembly calls for a reversal of these procedures. It is easy to bring in the table and leave the bracket attached to the tree for instances where the table is to be put back up again shortly. Thus there is provided a steady, level work surface easily and securely mounted at a desired height, with no harm to the tree.
