Farmers Market with the Scouts

 


We went to the Woodbridge Farmer's Market today with the Boy Scout troop. It was partially a fundraiser -- we sold drinks, $1 for a bottle of water or iced tea or a can of coke or diet coke.

The other part was a conservation project. A business had donated a bunch of white pine seedlings to the troop, thinking we could possibly use them. We used some. But there were a LOT of little trees. So we gave them out.

It was a lovely day, and we did really well. Most of the trees went to good homes. I hope they survive.

Got any trees left? We are going to cut down all of the trees in the front by the road. We plan to replace them with a few 5' - 6' trees but a few of the tiny ones could be added.

Dollar iced teas? Dollar cokes? I don't think even Safeway sells them that cheap anymore.
And for a good cause!
The only thing better is free trees. The company that donated them is awesome.

Mom --
I'll check with Joe, he might have a few left... I didn't save any because I don't have the right spot.

Sera -- We did even better than you would expect, because alot of people were in very good moods and made donations! It was a very heart-warming day, IMO...
