Wilding permits go on sale Monday

FLAGSTAFF, Ariz., April 12, 2019, For Immediate Release — People wanting to collect live trees, known as wildings, from the Coconino National Forest may buy their permits beginning Monday (April 15) and collect the trees until May 10.

 

There are typically two wildings permit seasons; one in the spring and another in the fall, while the plants are dormant.

 

Permits will be available for evergreen trees (Douglas fir, ponderosa pine, pinyon pine, and juniper) and oak trees in the Flagstaff Ranger District. The Mogollon Rim Ranger District will only be offering permits for evergreen trees. You may not harvest aspen seedlings because of the severe decline of stands across the forest and lack of natural regeneration.

 

Wilding permits sell for a minimum of $20 and will include a map showing designated areas where wildings may or may not be harvested.

 

For the best chance of successful transplanting, foresters recommend selecting seedlings less than 4 feet.

 

Permits are available at the following locations:

·         Flagstaff Ranger Station, April 15 to May 10
across from the Mall at 5057 N. Hwy 89, Flagstaff; (928) 526-0866; 8 a.m. to 4 p.m.
