Cold Storage
Fresh product is key to long term success . We have a full-service cold storage facility to look after your trees in that time period between growing and planting. We have people and systems that execute quality care to ensure trees are in top form after storage.
We take a science-based approach to our handling (regimes) and all of our products are tested by our in house lab technicians to ensure optimal tree health.
Our goal is to give your trees the longest shelf life possible and the best chance of survival.


Shipping
We want to be your partner in all of your successful planting projects. To help ensure long term success, fresh product is key to trees doing well after planting. We have a network of efficient and reliable carriers to ensure our trees arrive when you need them.
We can make your delivery logistics a breeze.


Surplus Seedlings
From time to time we have surplus trees. These are extra trees that were grown for an existing client but they did not have areas to use all of them.
Please contact us directly for more information about available surplus seedlings, or check our surplus seedling database for current stock information.
