Property owners in the Arrowhead and North Central region of Minnesota are invited to take part in our FREE tree seedling distribution program.

​

It's simple:

 

1. Pre-order FREE seedlings through our online store.

 

2. Choose your preferred pickup location.

 

3. We will email your pickup location details in March.

​

Species available will be Bur Oak, Northern Red Oak, Red Pine, White Pine, White cedar, and Yellow Birch.

 

These species have been selected because they are native Minnesota tree species and have a variety of site requirements. We offer a rotating selection of native Minnesota species that support healthy, diverse forests and are expected to do well in a changing climate. Some species may be available one year and replaced with others the next.

NOT SURE WHAT, WHERE OR HOW TO PLANT ?

We can help !

​

We work with industry professionals to determine which native Minnesota tree species are expected to do well in a changing climate, to ensure the best long-term survival rates.

 

We then source those tree seedlings and distribute them for FREE, along with detailed information about the site requirements of the tree species that we offer. 

 

We also equip property owners with detailed planting instructions, and we can refer property owners to forestry experts and other resources, for help with complex woodland questions and long term planning strategies.  We are here to help!

Let’s Plant Trees is committed to helping property owners and communities reforest Minnesota with a diverse mix of native seedlings. The need for reforestation is urgent, and we believe that cost should never be a barrier to planting trees.

​

Your seedlings are FREE but your financial support makes this possible. Every donation helps us purchase and distribute more trees to communities across the state.
