Thanks for helping reforest Minnesota! We lifted, boxed, and shipped nearly 3.5 million seedlings across the state this year. Those seedlings trees are now settling into their new homes.
Planning ahead? Now is a great time to think about next year’s tree planting. Look at our ordering requirements to get ready. The DNR also offers cost-share programs to help landowners plant trees. Visit our website and reach out to your local forester to learn more and check your eligibility.
Minimum order is 300 seedlings. You can mix and match species in increments of 100 to reach the minimum quantity of 300.
Tentative 2026-2027 seedling list. Species list may change depending on weather, seed supply, and growing conditions. Thank you for choosing the Minnesota State Forest Nursery to help meet your planting needs.
