Frequently Asked Questions

Who can order plants?

Anyone! We work with a broad range of partners, including but not limited to private landowners, watershed groups, government agencies, and non-profit organizations

How do you plant a bareroot tree or shrub?

  1. Use the spade tip from your shovel for planting measurements. Make sure to scrape off the grassy  layer and break up sod clump for back filling.  

  2. Dig the hole a shovels width and depth, typically 1’ by 1’. Keep the soil close to the hole; you don’t want to go searching for it when planting! 

  3. Find the root crown or soil level line on the plant. Make sure you don’t plant deeper than that line to avoid girdling and rot.  

  4. Pack the soil around the plant really well to avoid air pockets that could dry out the roots. Water in the plant.
