About
Central MN Tree Seedlings is a branch of The Flower Pot Greenhouse and Nursery.
This adventure we call our family business has been growing plants to supply our local community for over 14 years . Myself, my wife, 4 children, and immediate family members started our business with very little money and a lot of grit. Our kids have moved more soil, planted more seeds, and pruned more plants than any young person I know. I can safely say they have also learned many valuable life skills in the process. Growing living things isn't always easy; some years are good and some years are bad. Along the way, we've experienced steady growth since we opened and for the last several years we have been proud to offer our customers a selection of young tree seedlings at wonderfully low prices. Then we thought, why keep our talents for growing plants limited to only our neck of the woods? Well, one more grow facilities expansion later and now we don't! Which means that we have thousands of little trees ready to "grow" for you.
You see, we think it's important to plant trees...and lots of them. Not many things can bring us more bang for our buck than a young tree seedling for just a few dollars. We offer hardwoods, fruit bearing, fast growing, wildlife attracters, wildlife cover, flavorful trees, and the list keeps growing. Our process uses nature to the fullest extent when it comes to starting our seeds and storing our trees. Central Minnesota has a great climate for growing and winterizing many species of trees, while at the same time culling the weak with brutal cold. What that means for our customers is simply this; we grow a natural tree with as little chemical intervention as possible, other than fertilizer. (A tree needs a sandwich once in a while too, right?) Our trees are subjected to the weather all year long and weak trees simply don't make it. You get the survivors! NOT babied trees to maximize production. We want your trees to be planted ONCE. (But let's not forget to protect them with a ground cover square and a grow tube if you can.)
We are a small town family who believes hard work and perseverance gets you somewhere. Trying new things that allow us to work smarter and not harder has brought us to this point, and we hope you like it. Please browse our products to see what we grow well, and enjoy your own tree planting adventures.
Sincerely,
The Shipman Family
