Seedling - Arbor Day Scholarship Program


How do the seedlings arrive?
The package includes seedling trees and printed plastic bags with planting
instructions. Upon delivery, the seedlings can be placed in the bags along with soil
or peat moss for distribution to school children and other Arbor Day participants.
The price list includes both evergreen and deciduous trees in two categories –
seedlings and transplants. The transplants are more developed in both roots and
tops, but more expensive. See the reverse side for details, prices and
explanations.
All seedlings and transplant prices include bags, ties, shipping and handling.
Minimum order is 100 seedlings. (Orders less than quantities of 100 are available
for a fee.)
Limited availability - pre-bagged seedlings!
We offer a limited amount of pre-bagged evergreen seedlings. Minimum orders
start at 300. See the order form on the reverse side for details.
How can you distribute the seedlings?
Check with your local school department or municipality to obtain approval and an
estimate of the quantities you will require. Distribution of the seedlings may be
accompanied by a ceremony or presentation promoting Arbor Day, trees and their
value to people and the environment.
Other creative ideas that have been employed using the seedlings include:
- offering seedlings to those who recycle
- as promotional giveaways
- in recognition of an event
- as memorials
- to promote environmental awareness
- as a fund-raiser
- as wedding favors

The program is inexpensive, easy to implement, and readily embraced by
educators and others throughout the community. Net proceeds from the seedling
