Fall Seedling Ordering Coming Late October
Thank you for your interest in our free seedlings. The fall ordering will likely open late fall. We cannot distribute until the heat of late summer has faded. Therefore, the exact timing of ordering will not be known until early October at the soonest.
Interested in how our pickup for orders works?
Pick-up will be arranged by phone or email.
We do not offer delivery.
Pick-up will be at one of 2 locations in Fairfax County.
Why does it take so long for orders to be bundled?
We are in the field a great deal during the spring and fall. Bundling orders for individuals is just one of many things we do. Other events ReLeaf runs include plantings with volunteers, invasive removal, and distributions with companies and Supervisors’ offices. On the days ReLeaf is running these events, we cannot be bundling orders for individual distributions.
Unlike a commercial nursery we do not have set hours with one location. We bundle seedling orders at our cooler location. We do not have the staff to be at this location every day bundling.
Every order is different – bundling cannot be done by assembly line. Each order is specifically bundled for that person. This system is great for getting specific trees and shrubs to you, but does require a little more patience. We really do want you to get your order.
