The Seedlings for Schools Program, a partnership between the Game Commission’s Howard Nursery and the Wildlife for Everyone Foundation, will begin accepting orders February 3.

The program is available to all Pennsylvania schools with children enrolled from Kindergarten through 12th grade.

Individual Homeschool orders are not valid, they must be placed through a Homeschool group, co-op or other association.

The provides enough seedlings for each student to take a seedling home to plant.

This year's seedling choices are Norway spruce, white spruce, red oak, ninebark, greystem dogwood or silky dogwood.

If more than one classroom in a school is interested that is great!

Education materials for teachers and students supporting the program is also available.
