We are hosting another rain barrel raffle, this time to benefit OCNRCD and our important lake work. If you missed the last raffle we hosted, benefiting NEKO, we have another beautiful hand-painted rain barrel ready to find a new home in someone's garden.

This time we are raising funds for our own work in the preservation of Vermont's oligotrophic lakes. Did you know that Vermont is home to a high proportion of oligotrophic lakes compared to other regions and the nation as a whole?

An oligotrophic lake is characterized by low nutrient levels, high water clarity, and cold temperatures. These lakes are gems, and they need our help to preserve their quality.

You can purchase a RAFFLE TICKET OR TWO on our plant sale website

Or stop by our office (USDA, 59 Waterfront Plaza, Newport)

The drawing for the winner will be held on July 26 at our oligotrophic workshop.
