Fall Tree Sale Now Going On
If you are working to GO GREEN like so many others, the Jennings County Soil & Water Conservation District has a wonderful opportunity for you to do just that. The seventh semiannual Tree Sale is going on now and this time there are several species of trees and/or shrubs to choose from. Our downloabable order form shows many of the available tress and shrubs including popular maples, oaks, various flowering trees and shrubs, as well as evergreens and wildlife plants. If you want a tree or shrub that is not shown in the brocure, just let us know because the nursery can provide almost any type of tree you may want.
The trees are grown on a family-owned nursery in Missouri and are grown using a Root Production Method which means they virtually begin growing as soon as they are planted. They are easy to plant, have high survival rates, and give quick results.
Trees are a great investment in your property for many years to come. If you are not sure you need any trees/shrubs for your own property why not consider purchasing one or two as gifts to friends, neighbors, church, or your community. What a wonderful way to celebrate new life or to remember someone who has passed on.
The sale ends on September 21 and trees will be available to be picked up at the Soil and Water Conservation District office on October 5. Most trees are $25 each for a 3 or 5 gallon container tree with heights of each species varying. Some of the shrubs are priced at $15 to $20. We can also get larger trees in containers so check with us for availability and prices.
Proceeds from the sale will benefit the Jennings County SWCD activities. For more information or to pick up a brochure please visit the SWCD office in the USDA Service Center at 2600 N. State Hwy 7, North Vernon or call 812-346-3411 ext 3, Monday through Friday 8am to 4pm.
