Our Range of Trees
While only Siberian fir trees are currently available, additional species will be offered in the coming years.
Hardy, Climate-Resilient Trees for Southcentral Alaska
All trees are grown onsite at our nursery in Soldotna and carefully cultivated for long-term performance in Alaska’s demanding climate. We focus on cold-hardy, non-invasive species that integrate responsibly into local ecosystems while providing meaningful wildlife habitat and ecological value. Our primary service area includes Soldotna, Anchorage, and surrounding communities.
Siberian Fir
A Resilient Alternative to White Spruce
Native to the cold regions of northeastern Siberia, northern China, and Mongolia, Siberian fir is exceptionally well-suited to the climatic conditions of Southcentral Alaska. As native white spruce populations face continued pressure from spruce bark beetle infestations, this species provides a durable, climate-compatible substitute for long-term landscape and reforestation planning.

Siberian Larch
A Distinctive Deciduous Conifer
Siberian larch stands apart as a cold-climate conifer that sheds its needles each fall—a rare characteristic among northern evergreens. This seasonal transformation adds dynamic texture and color to the landscape.
Key Attributes

Grown With Patience and Purpose
Unlike high-volume commercial operations, our trees are cultivated deliberately over multiple years to prioritize structural integrity and transplant success.
Seed is collected from mature Siberian fir growing on our property
Seedlings are stratified and raised in organic, raised-bed systems
Young trees are thinned, transplanted, and hardened gradually
Only well-established specimens are released for sale
This approach emphasizes strong root architecture, cold acclimation, reliable transplant performance, and long-term survivability. Each tree reflects years of careful stewardship rather than seasonal inventory turnover.
