Thanks for tree sale| Letter

Salmonberry School would like to offer a heartfelt thank you to the Orcas Community for your enthusiasm and support during our fourth annual Christmas Tree sale.

Salmonberry School would like to offer a heartfelt thank you to the Orcas Community for your enthusiasm and support during our fourth annual Christmas Tree sale.

We sold well over 100 trees, and the money raised will help the school keep its programs vibrant and help in our scholarship efforts.   As a part of this tree sale, every year the students pledge to replant one tree for every tree that is sold.  This year, the elementary students are working with the Land Bank on a couple of projects on San Juan Island. They are working on a native species reintegration project at Beaverton Marsh. The students were able to see how the previous years’ trees have grown in addition to planting more trees. They are also planting wild mustard at American Camp, in hopes that the endangered Island Marble Butterfly will once again return.

We appreciate your support!
