the heirloom collection
Preserving mighty, centuries-old trees on our farm through propagation
Oakland Farm Trees Babe, one of our Heirloom parent trees. It’s been estimated she is 350+ years old.
It all started when…
We began collecting seeds from these beautiful trees and were excited to share the genetic potential with others across Kentucky. The Heirloom Collection is a way to preserve and pass along the genetic qualities that have led to the long lives of Annette, Babe, and others in our oak savannahs. The Heirloom Collection is a limited line of trees propagated from these acorns and are available for purchase at the nursery.
