The best time of year to prune most trees in Minnesota is winter. Wounds can heal while pests and diseases are at their winter standstill. It's also a good time to see the tree's form for attractive pruning. If you don't have trees (who couldn't use a few more?), ACD's annual tree sale is open. Trees are now being ordered and will be picked up in the spring. All are seedlings, available in bundles of 10 for $24-30 or bundles of 25 for $46-58. Prairie seed is also available. Please order early for the best selection; we intend to sell out of everything. Order online at www.AnokaSWCD.org. For more information contact Kathy Berkness, Office Administrator, at
