We’ve conducted several events this spring and summer in order to SURPASS our goal of rolling 35,000 milkweed seedballs. In fact, we made over 50,000!!! It’s been a whirlwind, but we’ve done it!  So many people played a huge role in these efforts, and we are grateful for the time, energy, and money put into spreading these seeds across Iowa.

The biggest THANK YOU to all of the organizations, companies, groups, and individuals who made this possible.
