Fall Seedling Ordering Is Closed
Wow — what an incredible response! Thanks to overwhelming interest, our fall seedling ordering has closed in just 8 hours! Orders placed today will not be ready until after Nov 15th at the earliest. The nursery hasn’t given an exact ship date for our fall stock yet.
Why does it take so long for orders to be bundled?
We are in the field a great deal during the spring and fall. Bundling orders for individuals is just one of many things we do. Other events ReLeaf runs include plantings with volunteers, invasive removal, and distributions with companies and Supervisors’ offices. On the days ReLeaf is running these events, we cannot be bundling orders for individual distributions.
Unlike a commercial nursery we do not have set hours with one location. We bundle seedling orders at our cooler location. We do not have the staff to be at this location every day bundling.
Every order is different – bundling cannot be done by assembly line. Each order is specifically bundled for that person. This system is great for getting specific trees and shrubs to you, but does require a little more patience. We really do want you to get your order.
