Jonsteen Tree Company owners Jonathan Claasen and Steen Christensen like to say, “We’re fighting against ‘nature deficit disorder.’” They’ve been supplying packaged live tree seedlings and grow-kits to visitors to Yosemite, Redwood, Mesa Verde, Muir Woods, and other national sites for more than a decade and a half.

With National Arbor Day and Earth Week both in April, they’re shipping tens of thousands of live tree seedlings all over the country. The nursery has also developed a “Classroom Pack” for science teachers, which includes 24 individual seed germination kits and a handbook to guide students through the life cycle of the tree. They’ve also created a “Cherry Blossom Grow Kit” for the Smithsonian Institution and the National Cherry Blossom Festival in Washington, D.C. These tree cheerleaders will have you eager to plant a tree in no time at all.
