Bakers Acres Tree Farm, Wasilla, Alaska
Ed Baker using his “story pole” to check the height of a beautiful black spruce at his tree farm. We ordered several 5′ tall spruce trees to plant in the yard this summer to replace the forest that was cleared for the building site. These are one of the heartiest trees in Alaska and can withstand strong winds and cold temperatures. They are slow growers, but in a few years should be large enough to create some areas of privacy in the yard. Ed will dig up each tree and deliver sometime next week.
