Posted: Monday, March 8, 2010 by: Lara Burkett | Category: Community Interest

The Lucas Soil & Water Conservation District's Annual Seedling Sale is going on now. One to two year old seedlings are being offered at a low cost to assist landowners in establishing conservation practices such as windbreaks, wildlife habitats, and treed riparian buffers. These trees can also be used for general landscaping. Conifers are available in packets of 25 trees and hardwoods and bushes are available in packets of 5. Also offered are one-ounce packages of "native" prairie seed mix, which has been collected locally from the rare Oak Openings Region. Two mixes are offered: a dry mix suited for sandy or well-drained soils and a moist mix for average to moist soils. Call 419-893-1966 for an order form or download it from www.co.lucas.oh.us/lswcd. The NRCS Plants Database (http://plants.usda.gov/) has helpful information on plants and trees.
