Spring planting program offered

RUTLAND—Trees beautify our surroundings, help save energy and protect our waterways. For these reasons and others the Rutland Natural Resources Conservation District (a non- profit organization) is offering a spring planting program.  All stock is bare root and is being offered at a reasonable cost.  It is necessary to plant bare-root trees immediately, in order to keep the roots from drying out.  The Rutland Conservation District has been offering this program for over 20 years.

Some available trees: balsam fir, fraser fir, white spruce, sugar maple, american cranberry, hazelnut, buttonbush, lilac, elderberry, and apple, pear and peach.Strawberry, blueberry and raspberry plants are also available.

Orders will be taken until March 15, 2021, or until supplies last, so order early!

This sale helps to generate funds to support the District’s many programs.
