2014 Tree Sale Underway

The Darke Soil & Water Conservation District is conducting its annual tree seedling sale until March 21. 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. Payment must be received before pick up. The pickup date is set for April 8th-10th. Prices range from $5-$10 in packets of 5 seedlings. We are also offering larger varieties on some evergreens.
