Our annual tree program provides landowners with trees for conservation at a reduced cost. We will have a wide variety of trees and shrubs common to Minnesota available. Trees or shrubs come in a bundle of 25 of the same variety for a cost of $30 per bundle. Read more about the Tree Program. Payment in full must accompany your order.

Because we must order our supply from our nursery a year in advance, we have a limited amount of each species available for sale each year. Accordingly, orders are filled on a first-come, first-served basis while supplies last. The earlier you submit your order to us, the more likely it can be filled as specified.

Orders will be available for pick-up at the Dakota County Fairgrounds in April of 2008. A reminder notice will be mailed approximately 2 weeks prior to the sale including directions, and pick-up times for each day.
