Seedling Sales
The Forestry office produces seedlings around the state in three different locations. Seedlings may be ordered beginning July 1 of each year. After the harvest, the orders will be filled and available beginning December 15 through March 1st. The Louisiana Department of Agriculture & Forestry reserves the right to prorate ANY AND ALL seedling orders exceeding production. Seedlings cannot be shipped, mailed or delivered to locations other than those indicated.
Check here in late 2009 and early 2010 for the times, dates and locations for the next LDAF seedling sale.

| | That depends on a number of things. How productive is your site? How much money can you invest? How soon do you want to get a return on your investment? The best answer would be to get a forester on your site and have him or her tell you your best options after he has inspected your land. |

|
| | LDAF Tree Seedling Nurseries operate solely on receipts from sales from seedlings, and do not give away free seedlings. |
|
|
| | The order forms and inventory are posted on our Web page, or you can telephone us at (225) 925-4515 and we'll be glad to mail one to you. |

| | There are several private seedling nurseries in Louisiana; however, LDAF nurseries are the only Louisiana tree nurseries that offer pine seedlings for sale. |
