About our Seedling Tree Program
The seedling tree program enables farmers, ranchers, and rural landowners to obtain seedling trees and shrubs at a nominal cost. The program's aim is to encourage landowners with two acres or more to successfully establish conservation tree plantings. The Kiowa Conservation District sells to landowners in their district which includes, mostly western Elbert County Colorado. We are not able to ship any of these trees.Each season from November to March, we provide an opportunity for landowners to purchase seedling trees and shrubs for sale through the Colorado State Forest Service Nursery (see our Links section to visit their nursery website).
The species we offer all do well in Colorado. Many sell fast, so early ordering is important to ensure you'll get exactly the trees and shrubs you want.
Trees forms are mailed in November and the landowner has until the middle of March to pre-order these plants. Distribution (pick up) of the trees happens in mid April. If you are interested in the program for 2009 please call us at 303-621-2070 ext. 101 or email us and we will put you on the list.
