Tree Sale Underway
The
Darke Soil & Water Conservation District is conducting its
annual tree
seedling sale until March 15. The 2-3 year seedlings are bare root
stock and
each tree is dipped into a preservative gel to keep roots moist inside
a
plastic bag and should be planted as soon as they are received. Our
seedlings
are packaged in groups of five. An assortment of tree packets are for
sale to
urban and rural landowners. The plant varieties are selected for their
popularity and hardiness in the Darke County area. This is an
economical way to
work toward establishing or adding to a wildlife area, to create a
windbreak,
or landscape. The pickup date is set for April 2-5. Prices range from
$5-$20 in
packets of 5 to 20 seedlings. Call the Darke Soil & Water
Conservation
District @937-548-1752 or stop by the office at 1117 S. Towne Ct.,
Greenville
with any questions.
