Order Tree Seedlings for Spring Planting

Trees need to be ordered early in the year to be delivered in the spring for planting. Various sources are available for ordering. Place your orders as soon as possible to assure that you receive the species of tree or shrub that you want.

We sell tree and shrub seedlings and have many species available. Our seedlings are sold in multiples of 25. The plants are distributed to customers in mid-April. Please call the office at 563-547-3040 for our tree seedling order form or click here.  Usually if you want a larger quantity of plants, other sources are more suitable to order from. (Sorry, deadline has passed for 2008 orders, new price list will be available on this site in January 2009). Deadline for ordering is March of each year.

How Do Farmstead Windbreaks Help?

Farmstead Windbreaks apply the principles of windbreaks in general to the specific need of protecting farm homes, buildings, equipment, and animals.

DRIFTING SNOW - prevents or greatly reduces drifting around buildings, on walkways and roadways, and in feedlots.

COLD WINTER WINDS - protects the farm, family and farm animals by reducing wind velocities.

ENERGY CONSUMPTION - lowers the cost of home heating (up to 30%), heating livestock and machine maintenance buildings, livestock feed, and snow removal.
