LOCK HAVEN -- Orders are being taken by the Clinton County Conservation District for its 43rd annual tree seedling sale. Proceeds from tree seedling sales are used to fund various educational programs, such as school booklets and field days.
April is tree planting month in Pennsylvania, and for several good reasons: temperatures are usually moderate and soils are moist for maximum freshness.
The variety of seedlings available this year 5 for $10 include: White Flowering Dogwoods, Sugar Maple, Black Cherry and Buttonbush; 5 for $12 include: Red Chokeberry and 5 for $15 include: American Arborvitae.
Apple Trees in a bundle of two (one CrimsonCrisp and one Red Delicious) for $40. These apple trees are all approximately 4-6 feet tall.
