Lifting and Shipping Schedule - Spring 2008

Seedling Orders - after May 1, 2008 seedling order forms are no longer accepted. Customers requesting seedlings after May 1st must call the Nursery at (603) 796-2323 to inquire as to availability of seedlings (for species currently sold out see Seedlings). County delivery is no longer a shipping option after March 31; pick up at Nursery and UPS are the only available shipping options.

Spring Lifting - weather and ground conditions allowed lifting hardwoods seedlings on April 14; softwood lifting began the following week. Our job is to lift the seedlings as soon as the ground thaws, then grade, package and store them in our walk-in cooler before bud break.

Nursery Pickup in Boscawen - customers who chose to pick up their seedlings at the Nursery in Boscawen will be notified by mail that seedlings are ready for pickup starting April 30. The Nursery will be open weekdays from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. and Saturday, May 3 and May 10 from 8 a.m. to 12 noon.
