If you are planning on growing and selling over $250 in nursery stock, you will need to obtain a
Nursery Grower License. Nursery stock is any plant that can overwinter outdoors in Wisconsin (trees, shrubs, woody and herbaceous perennials, perennial herbs, bulbs, etc.).
If you buy and resell more than $250 of nursery stock each season, you also need a Nursery Dealer License.
