Liberty Tree Nursery

Liberty Tree Nursery is located in southern New Brunswick, Canada and is focused on growing superior quality cold hardy tree and shrub seedlings. Since our founding, we have been especially focused on native hardwoods to supply habitat restoration projects, school planting events, and private landowners.

Company History

Liberty Tree Nursery was founded in 2019 by Jesse Saindon RPF.

After years of working in large nurseries across Canada and growing mainly conifer seedlings for reforestation, Jesse decided to start a nursery focused on different species, largely those that have value for conservation efforts or provide some type of significant non-timber value to humans, wildlife, or broader ecosystems. In the last few years, Liberty Tree Nursery has supplied thousands of bur oak and butternut seedlings for floodplain restoration projects within the Wolastoq (St. John River) watershed.
