First steps in starting a nursery is finding a location to plant your trees and plants. The ground must be fertile so plants and trees can grow successfully. After locating your space and preparing the soil, you must create a plan by creating a list of plants you would like to grow. The list should be followed regarding planting seasons.

First you should evaluate the business environment. Do you have the resources: capital, work force, real estate? How do you intend the business to be formed: LLC, Inc, partnership, FLP? Are you willing to accept the liability involved, or do you have the resources to protect yourself from liability? These questions should be answered before cashing in your nest egg.
