Panhandle Seedling Program
The Panhandle Seedling Program (PSP) is a reliable source of high quality native conifer seedlings at affordable prices for local landowners and forest managers.
PSP is comprised of four conservation districts in the panhandle of Idaho - Kootenai-Shoshone SWCD, Benewah SWCD, Bonner SWCD and Boundary SCD - who have joined together to offer residents in their counties locally sourced seedlings.
We contract with an inspected professional nursery to grow seedlings two years in advance of delivery. All funds received from sales go back into the program ensuring a sustainable program.
Benefits of a locally led program:
Quality Control - Ensuring seeds are properly sourced for the Idaho Panhandle’s soil, climate and elevation
Flexibility - Ability to adjust to the changing landscape and needs of landowners
Expertise/Experience - Professional foresters with extensive knowledge of commercial and small landowner timber needs
