Section 1 
Snowcatch 
It might be said that the Standard Windbreak consists of 
three sections. 
Section 1 is the snow catch, a double row of trees such as 
Chinese Elm, Laurel Leaf Willow or Golden Willow, de- 
signed to act as a large, permanent snow fence and to drop 
the snow before it can reach the buildings and clog up your 
drives. 
Section 2 is planted 60 feet inside the snowcatch leaving a 
good sized snow trap, which area can be utilized during the 
summer for the garden or home orchard. Section 2 consists 
of 4 rows of hardwoods—2 rows of fast growing trees such 
as Norway Poplar and Soft Maple alternated with 2 rows of 
slower growing trees such as American Elm and Green Ash. 
Section 3, or the backbone of the windbreak, is planted inside

Section 3 
4 Rows of Evergreens 
section 2 and is made up of 4 rows of evergreens. These 
are slower growing, of course, and do not make their contri- 
bution as quickly as do the trees in sections 1 and 2. 
If it is not practical to plant the entire windbreak at once, 
we would recommend first planting section 2, then section 1 
(the Snowcatch) and then section 3 in order to get the most 
good in the least amount of time. 
In section 1 plant trees 4 feet apart with 6 feet between rows. 
In section 2 plant trees 6 feet apart with 8 feet between rows. 
In section 3 plant trees 8 to 10 feet apart, with 10 to 16 feet 
between rows. We will be glad to help with the planning of 
your windbreak if you send us the measurements of the avail- 
able space.
