~Tree
& Plant Sale~
Early February
each year the Piscataquis County Soil &
Water Conservation District begins to advertise our bare root
stock plant sale in an effort to encourage plantings that protects the
soil and fosters wildlife habitat.
Many varieties of plants
are available. Due to the fact
that we are not a
nursery, all orders are subject to the quantity that we are able to
purchase from our vendor and are filled on a first come, first served
basis.
Pre-paid orders
are accepted and will need to be picked up on time from the District
office
in the USDA
Service Center,42 Engdahl Drive
in Dover-Foxcroft, Maine.
It is time to
begin out 2010 planting season!
Thank you for
your support!
~Trout
Sale For
Stocking Ponds~
Dear Annual Trout Sale Customers,
Due to changes in Maine Department of Inland Fisheries
and Wildlife rules, there are several new things
to consider when purchasing
trout:
 
We are no longer able to accept orders
for trout unless a copy of the current permit is submitted at the time
of order. That means, customers will have to
contact IF&W for permits before ordering fish. Click here to
view/download the Maine
Department of Inland Fisheries and Wildlife Permit Application
for Private Pond Stocking and/or the 2009 Trout
Sale Price List and Order Form. All trout-stocking
permits issued will be for a five-year period, for a $10 permit fee.
Customers holding current permits will not have to pay the fee until the
next time they need to renew the permit. Walk-in applicants will no
longer be able to receive their permits the same day from IF&W, since
the Department does not handle currency, they
also require that permit applicants pay by check or exact change.
Pre-paid
orders, along with a copy of your permit, need to arrive at our office by
Monday, April 14th in order to meet the sale deadline. The Trout Sale
pick up date is Saturday, May 8th. Please be prompt, the
life of your fish depend on it!
We enjoy providing this service to local trout pond owners, and look
forward to seeing you each spring at our office.
YOU MUST HAVE YOUR PERMIT WITH YOU
AT THE TIME OF PICK UP FOR US TO PROVIDE YOU WITH YOUR FISH!
