NEED TO KNOW TREE INFO
West Polk SWCD is now accepting orders for the spring 2025 tree planting season.
Bare root trees and shrubs are sold in bundles of 25 (minimum order) and container grown evergreens are sold individually. Orders should be placed by early February 2025 to ensure fulfillment and all orders must be paid in full before any trees can be released.
Trees are delivered to us in late April/early May depending on weather. Expect a post card from us around that time with specific dates and times when your trees will be available for pick-up.  
West Polk SWCD does not accept any responsibility for the survival of any trees and we are unable to offer leftover discounted trees.
If you want assistance with designing a windbreak, we have GIS mapping tools that can help us plan your project and estimate cost. We also provide a bare root tree planting service for shelterbelts, homestead windbreaks and living snow fences. (You provide worked soil, utility tractor and driver and we provide tree planter and labor.) Cost-share is available for field windbreaks – we can offset up to 75% of the total cost of installation (tree and planting cost).
For more assistance please contact Morgan at (309) 299-1993 or morgan.torkelson@wpolk.mnswcd.org

Limited Stock
Order by early February 2025
