About

Hostile Takeover, LLC., is a tree nursery based in Brookeville, MD, between Baltimore and Washington, DC. I grow bare-root tree seedlings without synthetic fertilizers, herbicides, or pesticides. Soil care and optimum seedling health are core values. I focus on feeding the soil and ensuring it has a healthy microbiome to give seedlings their best start. Most of my stock comes from seed to perpetuate genetic diversity and promote adapation to local conditions. I gather seed stock locally whenever possible. When purchasing seeds, I seek out stock from Southeast U.S. when possible to anticipate the ongoing changes to climate hardiness zones.

I grow food-bearing seedlings intended for agroforestry projects on farms, public green spaces, and community gardens in the region. Because I want to spend my time growing and less time selling, currently I am focusing on wholesale bare-root purchases. If you are a wholesale buyer in the Mid-Atlantic or want to buy in quantities of 100 or more, please reach out — I would love to work with you!
