200 Native trees and shrubs
We order trees and shrubs from the Colorado State Extension Service for use in windbreaks, land restoration and landscaping projects. We hope to make another order in the fall of 2011.

$181.44


Fruit trees
We attended a three day tree workshop in October lead by Gordon Tooley, and have a great opportunity to order bareroot trees at wholesale prices. We can add to our order until spring when the trees will be ready for pick-up. We hope to get 40+ trees in the ground. Donations of any amount towards this goal will be greatly appreciated!

40 trees @ $16 each

Thank you Commonweal Foundation Fund and multiple individual donors!

Shadehouse for our nursery plants
We have an inventory of a few hundred native plants. These are a crucial asset. A shadehouse is an essential piece of nursery equipment for plant propagation. It is important for us to erect a shadehouse structure soon to protect our current and future plants from the summer heat and winter cold.
