General Information

The Wisconsin Department of Agriculture Trade and Consumer Protection licenses various plant-related industries.

We inspect and license nursery growers and dealers and certify nursery stock to prevent the spread of pests. We also license Christmas tree growers, seed dealers and ginseng growers and dealers.

Licensing often includes product inspection to prevent the spread of plant insects and diseases. Inspection may also be required to ship plant products within the state of Wisconsin, out of state or out of the country.

Wisconsin also has a voluntary certified firewood dealer program so buyers can be assured the firewood is free of pests like emerald ash borer or diseases like oak wilt.

This institution is an equal opportunity employer.
