It's probably two years old. Can't give too much away.  Ok, it's probably not going to be too easy to find the clues scattered throughout the ID board, so more pictures will follow later. ;D

Yes, they are ceder seedlings. But, northern white T. occidentalis. Species isn't that important. Just demonstrates how cedar Thuja looks like moss in it's early stages, then grows it's first true leaves after a year or two. The seedlings were fresh picked yesterday, but look kind of bronze because they were growing in organic soil.
