Do you know if the IDNR purchases tree seeds and nuts? If so, can you provide contact information? If they do not, do you happen to know of any purchasers of walnut, various acorns, and much more? Thank you!

Hi Mark:
Yes, IDNR still purchases tree seed and nuts. However, they've streamlined their procurement process to only purchase seeds/nuts through preferred vendors. If you wish to learn more about their procurement process, please contact the IDNR Mason Nursery:
