Tree Sale at LCSWCD

We appreciate their beauty as leaves change colors in the fall and their shade on a hot summer day.  We look forward to their buds bursting open in spring.  But trees do so much more for us every day.
– They give us clean air to breathe by absorbing carbon dioxide and expelling oxygen;
– they slow down raindrops to protect our soil from eroding;
– their roots loosen the compacted soil so stormwater soaks in;
– they help us save money on energy bills, and
– they increase our property values.

The tree species we offer change a little bit each year, but we strive to offer a diverse option of hardwoods, ornamentals, and shrubs.

Check out the tree selection for this year by downloading the hard copy order form and tree descriptions below.
