The Korean Pine is the flagship of our nursery. A five-needle pine native to the mixed forests of eastern Asia, it grows slowly and deliberately, reaching heights of 30–40m over centuries. Its edible pine nuts have been gathered by foragers for millennia. We propagate from seed stock collected in Gangwon Province, nurturing each seedling through three winters before field placement.
Pioneer species of the boreal forest, Silver Birch is among the first trees to colonize open ground. Its white bark peels in paper-thin layers, a trait that has made it central to Nordic folk craft for centuries. Our birch stock is selected for vigorous crown development and clean stem form. Each sapling is root-trained in air-pruning containers to ensure strong lateral root growth for transplant resilience.
A tree of extraordinary refinement, cultivated in East Asian gardens for over a thousand years. Its deeply lobed leaves transform through the seasons, from tender spring green through summer's deep burgundy to autumn's incandescent scarlet. At namu.farm we maintain heritage cultivars selected for branching architecture and autumn color intensity. Grafted specimens available from three-year rootstock.
The great forest tree of Scandinavia, Scots Pine defines the Nordic landscape. Its upper bark peels to reveal warm orange-amber, catching low winter sun. The species tolerates extreme cold, thin soils, and maritime exposure. Our provenance stock originates from high-latitude populations, ensuring adaptation to cold continental climates. Bare-root seedlings available in spring planting season.
A living fossil, Dawn Redwood was known only from Mesozoic-era fossils until living specimens were discovered in a remote Chinese valley in 1944. It is one of the few deciduous conifers, shedding its feathery needles each autumn in a display of warm amber and copper. Its rapid growth and graceful pyramidal form have made it prized worldwide. We grow from verified wild-type provenance seed to preserve genetic integrity.

namu.farm is a small-scale tree nursery practicing considered silviculture. We propagate and grow trees from documented provenance seed, maintaining genetic records for every specimen. Our methods draw from both traditional Korean forestry knowledge and Nordic silvicultural practice. Each tree is grown with patience—we work on the timescale of forests, not markets.
Located in the transitional climate zone where temperate broadleaf meets boreal conifer, our site provides ideal conditions for a diverse species range. Visitors welcome by appointment during the growing season.
