"The Growing of trees
is a lesson in Patience. They can be assisted, but never rushed" -Kevin Kelly
________________________________________________________________________________ In 2009 we were named to the GREEN FARMSTEAD PARTNER by the Coalition to
Support Iowa's Farmers and Trees Forever. Our extensive work on
windbreaks, buffers, reforestation and other tree and shrub plantings on Midwest
farms has made us the leader in this area.
When you buy your trees and shrubs from Kelly Tree Farm you get our
experience of 45 years of Silviculture, which is the "art and science of growing
trees". So do not be afraid to ask us questions as our experience can help
you get the planting you want to do in 2010.
Our print catalogs have been sent out for 2010.
If you would like one of our catalogs please
contact us.

Kelly Tree Farm Windbreak
Wins Award!
Brad and Patty Manuel from Olin, IA with their
state award from Soil and Water Districts for Best Windbreak.
We planned, provided the trees and planted the windbreak in 2001.
A few of our over 15,000 potted leaf trees and
evergreen trees.
We do plant trees/shrubs through out Iowa and Illinois.
Roots from a walnut tree only 6 months old,
the tap root has been cut in a process called undercutting. This is done
during July and the tree immediately stops all top growth and then makes many
lateral roots that are perfect for planting in the following spring. We do
this with most of our trees such as oaks, hickory, pecan, evergreens, and many
others.

Remember that anyone can sell you a tree but if it does not survive
or grows poorly in your area you have lost more than the price of
the tree you have lost your time and that is something that cannot
be replaced, Thank you for stopping by and hope to hear from you.

grow bear the best fruit" --Moliere
