As I have every year it is time to post some numbers. Various members through out the years at this time have donated plant material as well as rooted trees to help with operation A.R.K. or the ark project. For the newer members I will bariefly explain the project.
Project ark standing for random acts of kindness was an ideal, no a dream that is still a long way from its full. Climax but off the a great start. Members donations of bulk named or unknown cuttings some rarer than others. These cuttings are propagated by me and sold online and at local fairs and attractions. Percentages of the proceeds go for helping folks who need a hand and various charities. Food crops are given to local food pantry. The remaining proceeds got to keeping us stocked with pots,soil,and supplies, as well as paying taxes, fees and other expenses from this.
The numbers are
5,497.31 is the final tally of the funds going to charity this year.
That was you guys, you who donated 10 cuttings, or 500 ( anonymous) you know who you are thank you guys so much. Every bit helps.
A big thank you, turning sticks into cash to help others.
I have been working at this for over four years now. Not knowing if I should again this year with the state of things. I haven't decided to give up, but haven't decided if I should continue.
I don't want to let anyone down.
But anyways guys that's the numbers this year from last year's cutting donations. Thank you and God bless.
