Very low cost seedling trees and shrubs available


Losing your forest to pine beetle, mistletoe or fire mitigation? Reforest your land with fire or disease resistant trees! Tired of those winds howling through your property? Plant a windbreak! Attract birds with shrubs.
The Colorado State University Forest Service Nursery grows 2,000,000 tree and shrub seedlings statewide every year! Many of the trees will thrive at this altitude.


Seedling sales are restricted however. To qualify you must: Have one or more acres of land. Use the seedlings for conservation practices only, such as windbreaks or wildlife habitat. No seedling purchased from our nursery can be resold as a living tree or used for landscaping. Seedlings are only available in lots of 30 to 50 depending on kind, and cost $30- $50.00 per lot. Species are available on a first- come-first serve basis. LAST DATE TO ORDER IS APRIL 10!

They must be paid for at the time of ordering, and they will be available for pickup at the Extension Office in early May. There will be a free class on pickup day on how to successfully plant your new trees or shrubs.
