Spring Seedling Ordering Is Now Open!
Thank you for your interest in our free seedlings. We are looking forward to another great spring planting season.
WE DO NOT PROVIDE ORDER UPDATES. YOU WILL BE CONTACTED WHEN YOUR ORDER IS READY FOR PICK-UP.
IF YOU PLACED AN ORDER PRIOR TO MARCH 30TH:
If you e-mailed your order on March 30th or prior and haven’t heard from us, never fear. We are diligently working through our list. We are currently working on orders placed late February. WE WILL BE IN TOUCH WHEN WE GET TO YOUR ORDER. DO NOT request order updates. We do not have staff to cover such inquiries while we are in the field working on orders and this only slows down the process. We will reach out to you when your order is ready for pickup.
Pick-up will be arranged by phone. We do not offer delivery.
Pick-up will be at one of 2 locations in Fairfax County.
STILL NEED TO ORDER?
The list of currently available tree seedlings is below. Once you have decided on your order, email a list of the tree species and quantities for each species, a good phone number to contact you when your order is ready, and anticipated planting location to trees@fairfaxreleaf.org. You MUST include all 4 pieces of information to have your order placed in the queue.
You WILL NOT receive an order confirmation. You will ONLY be contacted when your order is ready for pick-up or if there is an issue with your order. We anticipate starting to fill orders early next month.
Pick-up will be arranged by phone. We do not offer delivery. Pick-up will be at one of 2 locations in Fairfax County.
Be sure to include the following in your email to trees@fairfaxreleaf.org:
