Planting Equipment
Tree Planting Bars - Several planting bars are available for hand planting. These bars are available first come, first served.
Tree Planter Rental - The tree planter is not recommended if planting less than 300 trees. This machine makes light work out of a backbreaking job. The tree planter has its own hydraulic system to raise and lower the trencher. The tree planter can plant up to 5,000 trees per day.​ It runs on a large 12 volt battery (not provided) with post hookups. Contact Eric Mattson to reserve date of planter rental.
​
25+ species are offered each year in 4 categories:
​

- Small deciduous
- Large deciduous
