Olmsted County Soil and Water Conservation District's annual tree sale begins

October 15, 2024

Each year, the Olmsted County Soil and Water Conservation District sells trees and shrubs in bundles of 20 to 25 bare root transplants (2-3 years old). This is an inexpensive way to simply add color and beauty to your property. The trees are great for homestead windbreaks, living snow fences, and wildlife habitat.

Our 2025 Tree Sales Program is officially open for the public to purchase trees and shrubs. The public can make their purchase via the Tree Sales Website.

We encourage the public to use the tree sales website for the easiest method of purchase. Anyone unable to access the website may stop into our office between 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday to fill out an order form and pay in person at 1188 50th St SE, Rochester, MN.

Description of the trees available can be found at www.olmstedswcd.org. The tree sales program will remain open until the products are sold out. It is a first-come, first-served basis. Tree orders typically arrive in the spring (mid-to-late April) for pick up at Graham Park (Olmsted County Fairgrounds), weather dependent. Detailed pick-up information will be provided to customers closer to the pickup date.

Watch for additional information regarding the return of the seed mixes and plant kits for sale in early 2025.

For more information or assistance with ordering, contact the Olmsted County Soil and Water Conservation District at 507-328-7070.
