[QUOTE="Dirty, post: 335379, member: 6535"] Any shelter belts should be 7 rows deep at least in my experience if you want to have winter cover, and you’re looking at a ten year plan. I would go 9 rows or even more if you have the coin. 2 thicket forming rows of shrubs on the inner and outer most rows and 3 to 5 rows of spruce or pine inside. Thicket forming rows could be Buffalo berry or chokecherry or plum or something that offers food if desired. Do not try making a shelter belt for wildlife in winter with less than 7 rows. Contact the local soil service. Lots of cost sharing programs for putting up wildlife habitat. They will probably plant them for you if you prep the ground first. [/QUOTE]
