To use the nursery store, you'll need a MyWisconsin ID. If you haven’t already, create a MyWisconsin ID, then return here to start your tree order.

MyWisconsin ID is a way for the public to access state of Wisconsin services like this one. You can think of it like a Microsoft or Google account: one username and password linked to your email address gets you access to many systems and services.

If you have any issues with your MyWisconsin ID, contact the Wisconsin Division of Enterprise Technology’s MyWisconsin ID Account Service Desk at 608-471-6667. 

Once you're ready to log in with your MyWisconsin ID, proceed to the Tree and Shrub Application online store via the button below. If this is your first time logging into the store, you will need to create a store account and select an account type. You'll only need to do this once! This account is different from your MyWisconsin ID, but you can use the same credentials.  

Once you've created your account, you will be able to access the storefront, see the available products and begin your order.

Ordering Notes

  • For a successful tree planting experience, please seek professional advice from your local DNR forester or private consultant forester to develop a tree planting plan which will address species selection, site preparation needs, cost share programs available, tree planter rental options, information on forest tax law programs and other forest management topics.
  • A minimum order is a packet of 300 trees or shrubs (you select the species for your packet in increments of 100), 500 shrubs or 1,000 trees. Orders of 100 to 400 seedlings must be purchased in lots of 100 seedlings of the same species. To receive a price reduction for larger orders of 500 to 2,900, you must purchase a minimum of 500 seedlings of the same species; for orders of 3,000 or more, you must purchase a minimum of 3,000 seedlings of the same species.
  • An uncounted bulk order consists of at least 3,000 trees of one species and age. (Exception: uncounted orders are not accepted for certain species.)
  • Optional DNR Reforestation Program shipping is available at $7.00 (for 300 to 1,000 seedlings) or $0.70 per 100 (for 1,000 or more seedlings). No shipping refunds after March 15.
  • A 5.5% sales tax must be added to the total nursery order. Seedlings used for silviculture purposes may be tax-exempt. If you believe your order is tax exempt, please complete Department of Revenue Form 211.
