Schools across New York are eligible to receive free seedlings for spring planting through the
DEC School Seedling Program, which provides 50 tree seedlings or a mixed packet of 30
wildlife shrubs to any public or private school that would like to participate. The seedlings can
be planted on school grounds or other community spaces, and offer teachers a great resource to
enhance environmental lessons. Applications to participate are available at DEC's School
Seedling Program website, or by contacting the Saratoga Tree Nursery at (518) 581-1439.
Interested schools can also contact the nearest DEC regional forestry office to request a "School
Seedlings" brochure, which contains all the information necessary to place an order.
Deadline: March 31, 2017
