We are so grateful to all the donors who helped raise the $8,000 + to fund this orchard and to Joelle Mancuso – CA (MC Trustee) who managed the entire fund raising project every day for over a month.

A super big thank you to the volunteers who helped our students make this orchard dream a REALITY by planting 65 – apple, pear, and nut trees under budget and with 1/2 a day to spare.
