A Nursery Stock Distributor License is required by any person that distributes perennial or woody (winter hardy) nursery stock. This includes operation of a tree spade and landscape installation activities. A license is valid for a single distribution location.

All Nursery Stock Distributor Licenses expire at the end of the calendar year. You must renew your license annually, as long as you continue to distribute nursery stock.

If you need to apply for a new license, complete the online application, available here.

To renew your Nursery Stock Distributor license, you will need the following items:

• Your firm or corporation number that is printed on your postcard.
• Checking account routing number or MasterCard, Visa, or Discover Card information. Debit card use is not available at this time.

For online transactions, there is a 2.49% fee when using a credit card. There is no fee when using eCheck (ACH). Please note that this fee is non-refundable.

You will have the opportunity to review all applicable fees prior to finalizing your transaction.

If you are no longer distributing nursery stock, click the payment button above, log in and follow the prompts to cancel your license.
