Donations

The annual Mother’s Day  plant sale at the Polk County fairgrounds has been  the main fundraiser for Polk County Master Gardeners. Covid-19 has forced the cancellation of this sale for both years 2020 and 2021.  This leaves the chapter with no source of funding for the major undertakings of the organization which includes:

• The 7 acre demonstration plots at Inspiration Garden in Independence, OR
• Funding of scholarships for horticulture students at Chemeketa Community College
• Support for the Dallas Youth Garden, the historic Brunk House, the Dallas city park Hunter Arboretum
• Expenses for raising fruits and vegetables donated to Food Banks
• Various internet based instructional resources for the community

You may use a credit card to make a donation supporting our chapter’s ongoing mission and community outreach during the restrictions of the pandemic by selecting a donation amount that will be charged to a credit card and directly deposited to the chapter’s account.  Polk County Master Gardeners is a 501 c 3 organization.  You will receive confirmation of your tax deductible contribution upon check out of your online transaction.
