Seedling Tree Program
From November to early April, the SCCD offers low-cost seedling trees, shrubs, and perennials to SHERIDAN COUNTY residents for:
-
Living snow fences
-
Windbreaks
-
Wildlife habitat
-
Pollinator habitat
-
Visual screens
-
Noise barriers

And other conservation purposes
Seedling trees arrive in early May - just in time for spring planting. Perennials are generally ready the week before Memorial Day.
The SCCD/NRCS can provide assistance when considering local soil types, tree species, windbreak design, and site preparation for your planting.
IMPORTANT: Nursery inventory fluctuates daily and we do our best to update species regularly. In the event that a desired species is sold out, please have a substitution in mind.

When you pick up your seedlings, the SCCD will provide you with a small bag of complimentary root dip. The dip is meant to promote new root development on plantings.
