Before the snow and frost is gone for the season, consider planting some trees and shrubs and place an order.

"Our State Forest Nursery produces between two and four million seedlings yearly," said Aaron Lumley, forestry supervisor for the Iowa Department of Natural Resources. "Most are sold for conservation plantings with a smaller number sold as wildlife or song bird packets for smaller land holdings."
The seedlings offered by the state are 8" to 24" tall and sell between $0.25 and $0.55 per seedlings.
