Sale of native trees and shrubs
Penn State Extension’s Master Watershed Steward program is hosting its fifth annual native tree and shrub sale, a fundraiser for the program.
The sale features 18 varieties of native trees and shrubs. Organizers are taking orders through Aug. 28. Curbside pickup will be available between 4 and 6 p.m. on Oct. 4 at the York County Parks headquarters, 400 Mundis Race Road, adjacent to John Rudy County Park. Any plants not picked up during this time will be donated unless other arrangements are made.
Master Watershed Stewards plant trees to capture and infiltrate stormwater, stabilize soils and filter pollutants. Whether residents seek trees for privacy, for foliage, for shade, to attract pollinators or to create a beautiful landscape, organizers note that the program offers a variety of trees and shrubs to meet a wide range of needs.
Trees and shrubs are available in 1-gallon containers for $20, 2-gallon containers for $30, and 3-gallon containers for $40.
Master Watershed Stewards guarantee a healthy specimen upon collection. Due to variations in planting, site conditions and care, no guarantee or refund is possible after the tree has been collected.
Orders can be placed online or by phone for one-day curbside pickup in the fall. All items must be pre-ordered.
