Choose the place before the tree.
A practical route from a West Georgia planting idea to Georgia Forestry Commission seedlings and an arranged pickup.
A few suitable trees can begin a longer project. GFC sells seedlings to the public in small and large quantities for purposes including woodland renewal, wildlife habitat and beautification. The best first choice is a tree suited to the ground and the space it will need.
Write down what you want the trees to do.
Shade, wildlife food, a woodland planting and a screen can call for different species and spacing. Check sunlight, soil, drainage, competing vegetation and mature room before ordering. A species that suits a dry slope may be a poor choice for a wet corner.
Use the GFC county directory to discuss a woodland plan. Haralson’s office number is 770-646-5501. For a small yard planting, your county Extension office is another starting point.
Order with the pickup plan in mind.
- Start with the GFC seedling information, then the official GaSeedlings.org store.
- Choose the species and quantity after checking the current listing. Check each product’s minimum quantity and permitted order increments with GFC.
- Select a GFC county unit for receipt, or arrange nursery pickup. GFC says delivery to its offices has no additional charge. The order’s shipping address is for records; it does not establish home delivery.
- Confirm the receiving office, available date, final amount and pickup instructions before completing the order.
Nursery questions: 478-508-0056, Flint River Nursery, 9850 River Road, Byromville, Georgia. A visit to the nursery should be arranged, rather than assumed from an online order.

Northern Red Oak
10 seedlings × $4 = $40. This was a displayed tier for product NUR11. The listing describes deep, well-drained loams as a suitable setting.
Check current oak quantity and priceConfirm applicable tax, permitted order increments, availability and receipt arrangements through GFC. A low per-tree figure at a much larger quantity does not establish the small-order price. Species can sell out.
Have the ground ready before pickup.
GFC’s 2026 announcement describes the 2026–27 winter season; its general guidance recommends planting from December through March 1. Confirm the delivery week and species-specific timing. The office delivery program begins in December, with dates subject to change.
Keep roots from drying and protect seedlings from sun, wind and heat. Follow the species-specific storage and planting-depth instructions. GFC’s care sheet says seedlings held at 50–70°F should be planted within one or two days; do not plan to leave a bundle in a warm vehicle while the site is prepared.
A bare-root seedling needs care after planting and time to grow. Ask about vegetation competition, watering and survival checks for your site; the purchase alone does not promise an established screen or a particular survival rate.
Read GFC’s care sheet before collection. Keep it with the order details so whoever plants the trees has the instructions.
