Wind break/ privacy #8596479 Yesterday at 09:57 AM Yesterday at 09:57 AM

I would like to plant some bushes or trees that would only get 10 feet or so to fill that space (about 100 foot wide stretch). Also I would like to plant more that is not under power lines to fill in another 300' to help with privacy and dust from traffic on the gravel road. I'm in East central MN. Any suggestions on something that is fast growing?

Then do redbuds or wild plum in front of them for the eye candy. www.nationwidecartparts.com 3rd Infantry Division 1st Infantry Division U.S. ARMY

It is a nice looking hedge border plant for homes. Give me a fish, I will eat for a day. Teach me to fish, I will eat for a lifetime

Cedar apple rust will attack your apples negatively. To many coders close to my farm is why I have not planted any apples.
