Tree Sale Updates (3/26/2020)
We are sorry to announce that the live tree seedling portion of our tree sale has been cancelled by our tree supplier. Please know this was not an easy decision, nor made without considering all possible options. However, other items – seed mixes, mushroom kits, groundcover, bluebird boxes, bat boxes and Weed Wands will still be available.
We order the bulk of our tree seedlings through another Soil and Water Conservation District from Clements State Nursery. If you would still like to purchase seedlings, you may be able to order from them directly. Please understand that the cost will not be the same since we order in bulk.
At this time, everyone who ordered trees should have received either a phone call or letter in the mail (only if we did not have your phone number). Refunds will be sent via mail and appointments will be scheduled to pick up the items that are still being delivered. Please contact us via the District cell phone or email if you have questions. Thank you for your understanding and flexibility!
