I have started ordering some of my trees for next year. I got a few coming from U of Idaho, Itasca Greenhouse and the local NRCS. Gun season ended on 11/20 so I thought I would get an early start on 2023 tree planting.
We have had about 6-8" of total snow accumulation in the last few weeks at my land east of Leech Lake in MN. On 11/21 (day after gun season closed) I went down the road and snagged about 2 dozen transplants (14 white spruce, 8 balsam fir, and 1 red pine). Brought them back and planted them on my land. The ground wasnt frozen underneath all the snow even though temps have been close to zero a few nights. I got a good seal on all of the holes so I'm certain some will survive. I would have done 200 if I would have brought my snowpants and Wolverine shovel along. It worked really good.
