Bareroot Sale!

Every spring right before it's time to bring in the new stock of bareroot trees and shrubs, we like to fire sale the old stock to make room for the new! This means great prices on our bareroot fruit, shade and ornamental tress! This year all trees with be $15 each of $60/bundle of 5 trees. No holds or reservation on sale material, come early to get the best selection. Sale starts Friday March 25th and runs until the new stock arrives (probably by the first week of April).

What is a bareroot tree?

Bareroot trees are a great way to save a little money. The trees are literally 'bare root' which means they come to you without a pot or burlap. They are a younger tree and will take more time to mature, but if you are doing a large planting it is the most economical way to save some money. They do need to be planted soon after being taken home (or at least the roots need to be covered).
