2026 Tree Sale
It is that time of the year again when we begin the Columbiana Soil and Water Conservation Districts annual tree sale. This year the district is offering 36 different varieties of seedling trees and shrubs including evergreens, deciduous trees, shrubs, fruiting and flowering trees. The available species will be beneficial for stopping erosion, producing berries and fruit, enhancing backyard areas, creating windbreaks, and producing forage for wildlife. The order form and species descriptions for all the species featured in this year’s sale can be found attached to this post.
Seedlings will come in packets of 3-5 plants depending on variety and range from 8”-36” in size. Orders are placed on a first come first serve basis. Buyers are encouraged to place their orders early to ensure plant availability.
Pickup dates for this year will be April 15th-16th (8am-6pm) and April 17th (8am-4pm) at the SWCD office. With questions regarding the sale please contact John Beilhart at 330-277-2977.
