State Nursery
I wanted to thank MDC for the quality and availability of shrubs and bushes from the state nursery. The prices are more than fair, and out of the 50 black chokeberry plants I have ordered, only one has failed. That’s a heck of a success rate. Great work and a quality product.

It’s that time of year again — time to order your seedlings from the George O. White State Nursery. Find the flyer in this issue, follow the online link, and get your orders in. Some species will go fast. — The Editors
Won Over a West Virginian
I grew up in West Virginia but moved here 20 years ago. And though I will always be a proud mountaineer with our beautiful rivers and streams, your magazine is second to none. I even get the kids’ magazine [Xplor] to send to my niece. Keep up the great job.

To Serve and Protect
Your magazine is read as soon as it arrives. For everyone at MDC working in front, behind the scenes, and in the field, you have given the state of Missouri the best in the nation. Thank you all for your time and efforts. It has really paid off. An agent even came to my property years ago to help give me better deer and turkey ideas. Please continue to serve and protect what we have been given as you have in the past.
