Native Tree and Shrub Sale In January, order forms will be sent out to those on the mailing list for our Annual Tree & Shrub Sale. (Early birds can download the Order Form ). We work collaboratively with South St. Louis SWCD to offer a larger variety of tree and shrub options. For best selection, remember to place your order early. We only offer species native to our region. In using indigenous trees and shrubs, we help reclaim the original ecosystems of northern Minnesota. There is no worry about non-natives overtaking more sensitive natives, which happens in the plant world, just as it does among fish in our waterways. And, give them proper soil and water conditions, native species thrive, because they like it here! Furthermore, in purchasing native plants, we are encouraging area nurseries to stock more of them. If there's a native tree or shrub you are interested in, but don't see listed here, please let us know. With enough demand, supply will change. If you are interested in receiving the Annual Tree Sale announcement, please contact our office at 218-387-3647. What type of tree should I order?
Want to split an order? All you need to do is: Please note: We will not be involved in plant buying partnerships, other than to provide the meeting grounds of Facebook. You will need to work out the details of splitting the cost and of splitting the seedlings in a timely fashion so they can be promptly planted.
