The Project Is Finished

A couple weeks ago I was able to present the Black Hills Raptor Center with the money we raised for them from the sale of the tomato plants we planted from seeds.
 
-The money we gave the Raptor Center will be enough to buy 7 bags of mice to feed their birds.
 
-The money we gave the Mary Jo Wegner Arboretum will go toward buying a tree for the park.
 
-The money we gave Ground Works will be used to make kits for local teachers who wish to do growing and garden projects with their classrooms.
 
Total we raised $431.40 just by growing something from a seed.
 
Here are some photos of the tomato plants I saved to plant in my own backyard.
 


 
These are some of the first to turn red.

 
 


If you look closely there are at least nine tomatoes in this one photo.
 
 

 
I hope your plants did well too!
