This program takes place twice a year, in the spring and the fall. Taos SWCD buys seedlings in bulk from NM Forestry Division and creates bundles for goals the landowner has on their property.
Planting seedlings or growing new trees from seed helps prevent soil erosion, improves air quality, and provides a natural water filtering system.
Seedling Program
This program is for individual landowners who own land within Taos County.
If you are renting or leasing the land, you need to show your lease agreement or landowner approval.
Incomplete applications will not be accepted so please do not submit an application that does not include all of the required information.
