Purchase Seed From Us

Sowing tree seeds is a reforestation alternative to planting seedlings on some sites. This approach requires specialized site preparation, an understanding of seeding methods and post seeding followup for the best chance of success.

The following seed is available this year:

Species (seed condition) Time of availability
Shagbark hickory (w/out hulls) October
Bur oak (with caps attached) September-October
Red oak (w/out caps) October
Jack pine (cleaned seed, w/out wings) Year round (stored seed)
Black walnut (w/out hulls) October-November

Contact with a knowledgeable forester is required prior to ordering seed. An application form is available from DNR foresters or Reforestation staff.
