Orders placed now are for Fall 2026 shipment

Orders placed now are for containerized trees. We take orders for our trees in advance and ship them out at the best time for Fall planting in each region from Aug-Dec taking the guesswork out of planting. See our Fall Shipping Date Map Below to see exactly when orders will ship to your state.

Get your order in now, we sell out early every season!

Shipments to Northern states like MI and WI will start to go out in Aug and we will work our way Southward as the weather warms. We'll finish up in the South in states like MS and FL in Nov-Dec. A notification will be sent via email prior to shipment with tracking info.

This map shows our ship dates color coded by state. We time shipments to arrive at the right time for planting in each region. You'll get an email confirmation when your order is shipped to give you advance notice before their arrival.

If you place your order after we have completed shipping to your region we will ship your order out within 5-10 business days.

Mycorrhizae is a beneficial soil fungus that grows on the roots of your trees and helps them take up water and nutrients more effectively. Similar to inoculating plants like beans and peas prior to planting. If you select this option we will include a packet of mycorrhizae granules with your trees. Just sprinkle in the hole prior to planting and you're good to go. We don't plant anything here at the farm without using it ourselves!

When you buy from us you can rest assured that you're going to end up with a healthy growing tree come spring. We guarantee that all our trees will emerge from dormancy so you don't have to worry about spending your money on something that may or may not bud out come spring. Just follow the recommendations in our planting instructions and your tree is covered.

You must protect your trees with one of our tree tubes for this guarantee to apply.

Chinkapin (also spelled Chinquapin) oaks are one of the best varieties of oak for wildlife. They produce acorns that have very low tannin content which means they taste great to deer, turkeys, raccoons, black bear, and pretty much everything else in the woods. Typically they’re one of the very first types of acorns deer choose to eat when given a variety. They’re a magnet for wildlife when they drop Sept-Oct. Unlike most of our other trees Chinkapin oaks need neutral or slightly alkaline soil to thrive. They can’t handle acidic soils. They should also be located in a well drained area.
