We have now partnered with a fiscal sponsor, “Common Good” in Ashfield, MA. All grant funding and donations will be held in this community resource, to help build a stronger local economy and to reinvest our money locally until needed by the orchard. To learn more about how this works, please visit the Common Good website https://commongood.earth

-Permaculture fruit tree guild plantings for seniors at their homes – $40/each (goal 10 seniors)
-New shrubs and lavender plantings for the orchard – $10 each (goal 25)
