Planning, Sales and Planting: The Lincoln SWCD provides a tree program to landowners/operators in Lincoln County.  The nursery stock is top quality and is offered at minimal cost.  The SWCD can assist in the planning and design of a field windbreak, farmstead shelterbelt, wildlife planting or a living snow fence.  The SWCD Conservation Technician will work with landowners to access program funding for tree plantings.  Cost-share may be available. 

  • The District sells a variety of trees.  Listed under the Tree Species below are some of the trees available through the District.  For more information on availability and prices refer to the contact information listed below.

Matting Material: Growth rates are significantly faster
when weed barrier is used, as newly planted trees can't
compete with annual weeds and grasses.  It suppresses
weeds, moderates soil temperature and conserves
moisture to create a favorable root development of the
trees.
