All of our trees are under irrigation in the auction yard, so we can keep them healthy until they are picked up. If shrubs are included in the line-up, they are not under irrigation and do need to be removed from the premises on the scheduled pick-up day. We do not load enclosed trailers, as damage to trees and/or equipment is likely to result. In most cases, our trees weigh 500 – 1,000 pounds a piece, so please plan for that when you are making transportation arrangements. We generally do not offer delivery or planting services for auction purchases.
Here are some tips to help you get the most out of your auction experience.
- Wear boots (or old shoes) and bring a pocket poncho and/or and umbrella when you visit the tree farm. Dress in layers and be ready for anything. Mother Nature is unpredictable.
- Please understand that loading takes a considerable amount of time and plan accordingly.
- If at all possible, bring a ratcheting strap for every row of trees you plan to haul. Tarps are also a good idea, since we do not tie or wrap auction trees for transport.
- Handouts, with descriptions of the plants in the auction and ball & burlap planting instructions will be available near the auction area on the day of the preview. You can also find great information on the "plant care info" section of this site.
- Our sales staff will be available to answer questions in our retail sales lot on preview day. This area is west of the auction yard and south of the greenhouses.
