Thank you so very much!
Guys.. posting went down in the thread, but still, every day there are donations.
Let's play a game:
we can post or not, but this is what we do for now: we all are highly in favor of this charity that helps the people, the environment, reforestation etc in so many ways..
we also know that 25 cents buys a fruit tree such as this:

A banana tree yields 200 bananas per year, so $5 pays for 20 trees which is 4000 bananas per year which is about 12 bananas a day.

This is a larger family that take care of a forest garden and the forest garden takes care of them. Yes, a family of 12, the little ones help in the garden too. So, if you donate $5 a family of 12 will each get a banana a day, a quick lunch, and if they propagate the trees, the number expands,
Don't forget that peeled and sliced bananas can be dried in the African sun, like mushrooms, so people can process the crop and store it so that they have year round access to the nutrition and calories of it. Bananas are good eating!
The game is this:
If 3 days go by without a donation of $5 or over, we will unsticky the fundraiser and you can find it in Website Announcements & Feedback, because our action page at Trees is open year round. YOU decide whether you want to keep this train riding, maybe even into Christmas or 2023. post the most fun posts, but your votes are in how much of a dime you give This way, if the community wants it we shall put this fantastic fundraiser, now at almost $31,000 to rest. YOU decide thge relevance. Please, give from the heart, if it doesn't feel good don't give, donations should be wrapped in l ve, not OCD, the spirit in which something is given magnifies in the giver and the rceiver so let the giving feel good 
You don't have to buy into the notion of global warming, but you do reduce your CO2 footprint with every tree you plant, you terraform and reforest the planet, you help wonderful people with failing chemical monocrops achieve successful biodiverse organic bumper harvests year round and reduce the refugee crisis and help the poorest parts of the developing world develop themselves in a dignified virtuous way. How many trees did you plant this year?
Of course you can give sums of any size, and add your two cents on the donation page.
Join us at the Team Shroomery page @ Trees.org to see the count, progress and add to it, one 25 cent tree at a time!
Now lets throw a fantastic party in this thread, link us to awesome music, post your grows and finds, also your own vegetable garden posts, and occasionally quote this post to remind people what we do it for.
WE DONATED OVER 100,000 TREES this year.
Ten million coconuts a year, twenty million bananas, forty million tangerines!
And! It! Will! Propagate! Through! The! Decades!

Thats about what it would cost you to fill out a loonie collecting book, $35 worth of loonies since 1987 and $34 for the lighthouse vista book

Even addicts among us share some of their fix.
People who don't like people like that people are put to work to rebuild nature.
Even a white nationalist could find reason to give so the others dont come here as refugees.
this project has appeal to the left, the right, down the middle and apolitically.
it transcends, it does so much good for so many people.
people look down their noses to us, but we are scraping dimes and making big donations on our economic levels that billionaires dont even do without a personal leverage incentive. We are the of the people. Shrooma are the new growing on the old, the wheat emerging from the chaff.
Please guys, drop a log on the fire

So it looks like this is almost over as it's not a sticky anymore I assume there hasn't been any donations in a little while.
That said, this won't be over until I said this:
ASANTE, THANK YOU FOR YOUR COMMITMENT. THANK YOU FOR CARING, THANK YOU FOR MAKING THIS POSSIBLE (AT LEAST BE A PART OF THE PEOPLE WHO MADE IT POSSIBLE) AND THANK YOU FOR HAVING HANDLE THE THREAD THE WAY YOU DID, WITH ALL THAT PASSION.

thank you so much for doing the right thing! 
its a big donation here but a 200 banana tree plantation over there, and thats before propagation. your $50+ generates 120 bananas a day = 12,000 kcal including 120gr protein
its wonderful that you enter at this stage and still go for full participation, one supporter account coming your way!
and this as such a new member, with grow interests!' Ace!

Any n00b who contributes positively to any community should get the warm welcome they deserve, we were all n00bs once< our founder Ythan was the biggest n00b of all because he was too young to be on his own site 
thats now 25 years ago, a silver jubilee of a solid gold community, and you are very welcome in it.
I only use the word n00b affectionately, as a bit of a friendly tease. my personal belief is that all are one and you are that, so why spread anything but love?
we're good people, buncha druggies paying part of their personal fix forward towards lasting change in this world for the better, for people who average bringing in $2 per day - and thats no exaggeration. $50 is a months pay there.
Many of us consider spirituality woowoo, but most of us submit to that mushroom, that cactus, microdot or jungle concoction that takes us to places greater that our ego can imagine, deep in ourselves.

Thank you so much for the 200 trees you donated!
200 trees! if they were jackfruit trees we're talking 200-500 fruits per tree at least as big as this one:

Milo, know what's deep?


deep are the roots of the jackfruit tree, easily 100ft, its own solar powered water well.

The Trees.org team page at https://donate.trees.org/Shroomery will remain open and we may revisit the fundraise in the future, but this was the last day intended to match donations (even though the match target was hit long ago). Thank you guys for being so awesome in supporting this very good cause. Thanks animal.cracker for stopping by with your donation today too!

SHROOMERITES WE HAVE SUCCEEDED!!
The admin team, we had our doubts this year. The world is in trouble and much of it is economic. Charities worldwide have strong declines. We are the Shroomery, most of us have trees to smoke.
A tree for a quarter, four trees to a dollar. Four fruit trees is pretty much 500-1000 fruits a year. We decided to give the Shroomery s chance, not decide for you. Every cent is a fruit basket a year.
There have been shockingly generous donations, most especially from one member and his family, and to their great honor even anonymously. right from the start.
We are planters. planters of mushrooms and of trees. We are the worlds biggest mushroom tribe. we are the top treeplanting team three times over. Let that sink in.
$25,540 in 2022
$5555 in 2021
$31,100 TOTAL
as the crow flies:
125,000 fruit trees. 12.5 million coconuts a year 25 million bananas a year 50 million citrus fruits a year
we partially feed a million people
how do you like them apples?
Shroomery.org partially feeds a million people
we planted 125,000 trees sequestering 6 kilotons of CO2
SIX KILOTONS 
in the meme time..



I salute Established Titles for doubling up our Giving Tuesday donations. Class, Your Lordships!
But that one anonymous Shroomerite and his family.
Words cannot express my and our gratitude.
Our gratitude cannot express what you did for so many people in Africa and the environment, for generations to come. Diseased infants lives will be saved with a paste of peanut and banana grown in your forest gardens. Your family and you will end up saving more lives than Oskar Schindler did.
Shroomery, i am so very proud of all of you, those who participated actively, but also every single troll on this site who took a step back to let this freedom train pass through.
This was our comunity keeping it right as she goes.
WE PARTIALLY FEED A MILLION PEOPLE
Put that in your christmas stocking this holiday season!
Likr Geokills said, you can always donate through our action page, year round. What i do, i autodonate $7.25 every month through our page. Why that goofy number? it means i plant one fruit tree every day of my life. If i may suggest, automatically donate $1 monthly through our action page, that sounds like its nothing but its still just about a tree per week and 50 trees in of itself are a little family orchard. the link Trees in my signature links right to our action page
enough talk of that!
thank you all for participating, may God savagely bless you, we love you!
25 years Shroomery, $25K donated
I love the glory years of old but this here is one of our finest hours.


Join us at the Team Shroomery page @ Trees.org to see the count, progress and add to it, one 25 cent tree at a time!
