Annual Tree Sale Underway
The Meeker Soil & Water Conservation District has its annual tree sale underway. Orders have been taken since the first of the year, and the trees will be distributed on April 25th and 26th at the Meeker County Fairgrounds.
Joe Norman says there are 34 different species of trees and they come in bundles of 25 for $50 and there are also potted evergreens. He says you can find order forms on their website or pick up an order form at their office on Johnson Drive in Litchfield and get your order in as soon as possible.
Norman says people plant trees for a variety of reasons including protection from the snow in the winter time, privacy, soil and wind erosion protection, and habitat for wildlife. He says they are also taking orders for grass and flower seeds for pollinator plots.
