High Desert’s Fall Seedling Sale is open! Fall is a great time to plant seedlings! Planting in the fall gives trees an extra growing season before the stress of summer. The combination of cooler temperatures and fall rain allows trees to establish their roots, making it easier on them to adjust to extreme heat or drought in the summer. Click here to see our fall seedling selections!
Regular Hours:
Open 8:30am to 4:00pm Monday - Thursday
9am to 12:30pm on Friday
