Sawtooth Oak If you want to add a great fall food source to your land but don’t want to wait decades for it to start producing then sawtooth oaks are a great choice for you. Sawtooth oaks are one of the earliest producing oaks with acorn production starting in only 6-8 years. Sawtooths are heavy producers and have large crops of very palatable acorns every year. Its no surprise that sawtooth oaks are the most popular oak planted for wildlife. Deer and turkeys alike can’t get enough of the acorns produced by these oaks. Sawtooth oaks are easy to grow and do well in a wide range of soil types and climates and require little to no maintenance after they get established. They prefer acidic, well drained soil and full sun. Suitable for USDA growing zones 5-9. You must protect your trees with one of our Tree Tubes to be covered under our Survival Guarantee.

That's right, trees have beneficial microbes that live on their roots just like other plants do. These microbes are called mycorrhizae. They grow in and on tree root systems and help them take up nutrients and water from the soil more effectively. Mycorrhizae increase root growth and root mass significantly which leads to healthier, more drought resistant, and faster growing plants. Many studies have shown the benefits of mycorrhizae for all kinds of plants including trees and we have seen it first hand in trees planted here on our farm. We don't plant any trees on our farm without mycorrhizae because of the difference it makes in drought tolerance, growth rate, and overall health of the tree. The mycorrhizae we sell is a strain known as Rhizophagus intraradices and is a beneficial soil fungus that forms a sponge-like mass on root systems helping them take up and store water and nutrients more effectively. It essentially increases the surface area of the root system. This mycorrhizae comes in the form of dry pellets that just need to be sprinkled in the hole before planting your tree. It’s a super easy step that makes a huge difference in the success of your trees. Just sprinkle approximately one tablespoon into the hole just before planting your tree, then plant your tree as normal and the microbes will do the rest, easy as that. If you are ordering trees you can choose to have mycorrhizae included with them. Just select “Add mycorrhizae” from the dropdown menu above we will include enough inoculant in your order to treat all your trees with.
