Trees are a very important part of our environment.
They can be used for windbreaks, to protect livestock, to protect homesteads, wildlife habitat and to improve the overall scenery of our land. We need to constantly plant and care for our trees and they will continue to protect us and our surroundings. Upper Elkhorn NRD Tree Program Trees are made available to the Upper Elkhorn NRD through the Clark-McNary Tree Program. They provide the NRD with a variety of different species for windbreak and wildlife purposes. The NRD also purchases trees from Lincoln Oaks Nursery, Colorado State Nursery and Towner Nursery.
