My recycling center at 35th and Sheridan is hosting the State Forestry Services tree sale today till 4.
Minimum order is 100 trees, so it is not intended for most urban property owners. Most of the customers are farmers and large lot owners. Some are neighborhoods and churches who want to distribute among their members. These are seedlings, but the variety is wide and the price is low.
Pecan, plum, oak, cypress, walnut, persimmon, pine, elm, red bud and many more.
The prices range from thirty cents to forty five cents a piece. For 45 bucks, you can get 100 baby trees to share with others.
We are going to do it again next Friday at our Sand Springs recycling center.
At that price you can buy the whole lot of 100, keep the ones you want, then throw away the rest. [:D]
hell for $45 I'll buy 100 of them and go start planting them in public ROW. I'd plant one next to every bradford pear that the city put downtown because they will eventually all break.
Dang, wished I read this earlier. We bought 3 trees last weekend. I'm wanting more though. And at that price, I'll take 100 & distribute to my neighbors. Our street is "naked" since the icestorm.

The city ought to ban those bradford pears. Puleeeeze dont tell me that is what they are planting along the streets they are redoing?
We are repeating this tree sale next Friday in Sand Springs. Our recycling center is on Morrow road and Main Street. For non-Sand Springians, that is a half mile east of Warehouse Market on 97 highway.
I got some LaceBark Elm, some Sawtooth, Northern Red and Burr Oak, Some native Pecan, Some RedBud, some bald Cypress, some Lilac, and some Black Walnut.
