MC CONSERVATION: TREE SEASON BEGINS

MC CONSERVATION: TREE SEASON BEGINS

    The Marshall County Conservation District is preparing to begin its spring tree season, with nursery shipments arriving this week and planting expected to start by the first week in May.
    District officials are encouraging those with planned 2026 tree plantings to complete final land preparation so sites can be flagged.
    Distribution of pre-ordered bare root trees is scheduled to begin Friday, April 24. Tree shed hours will be 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. Customers are encouraged to pick up and plant trees early to allow time for establishment before warmer weather.
    Additional trees will also be available for purchase, including a selection of bare root trees suitable for replacing green ash, as well as fruit trees and potted spruce trees.
    Due to incoming shipments and pre-order fulfillment, additional time may be needed to assemble new orders. Those interested are encouraged to call the tree shed at 605-448-5400 or stop in to check current inventory.

Do you support creating regional ambulance service systems with state oversight and potential state funding?
