Spruce saplings drop from trees that have no wood left. Leaving the leaves of a spruce tree floating will eventually drop items including saplings.

Having an overabundance of saplings can be solved by either planting or turning them into bone marrow material. Bone marrow is made by taking a plant and putting it inside of composters. Also, it takes over twenty spruce saplings to fill a compost bin in Minecraft.
