brokenbow:
Does anyone know where I can purchase raw red osier/dogwood shaft bundles? 

jthompson1995:
You might try to look up stream restoration companies. They use red osier fir live staking and wattles (bundles) for controlling erosion on stream banks.

DanaM:
Why buy them ??? Go cut them if their not native to your area find some other species of dogwood their all basically the same.
If I had the time I would go cut ya some but its hunting season ;)

brokenbow:
They are native to this area, but we've already got snow on the ground and the leaves have fallen, so I can't identify trees/shrubs.  Plus, I don't know where they grow around here.  Otherwise, I would harvest them myself. 

DanaM:
Rd Osier grows in marshy areas and their easy to ID as the bark is red :) I prefer to cut them in winter/spring as its easier to
see the good straight shafts when theres no leaves
