Larner Tree Seeds
Too many of our native tree species have seed that does not store well. Oaks, redwoods, buckeyes, and alders are all in this category. Also, good harvests (most years) vary from species to species and year to year. We are still collecting tree seeds, however, and will list those species available in the fall every year. Be sure to check this page then.
