Matt and I have had the opportunity to view some different ecosystems that contain some amazing plant life here in Honduras. Throughout the times we've been to Honduras, we've taken some beautiful photos that we now would like to share. While we are at home in June, we'll be offering greeting cards for sale with these photos on them.
The money that we raise with this project will go to fund school supplies for Katie's afterschool program and innovative seeds and educational materials for the farmers that Matt works with. Both projects are not currently in our budget, so having a fundraiser helps provide us with the materials we need to provide Hondurans with another outlet for learning and growing.
Cards are available in packs of eight different cards (described below) at a cost of $10 per pack. Individual cards are available for $1.50 per card.
The Dwarf/Cloud Forest Pack
These flowers were all taken in two unique ecosystems high in the mountains of the Sierra de Agalta mountain range in Olancho, not far from where we live in the valley below. The dwarf forest was particularly interesting as it was so high on the mountain and the wind is so strong that plants do not grow tall there. Many fascinating bromeliads are included in this pack.
The Tropical Garden Pack Included in this pack are the flowers of many gardens we've seen in Honduras. Some are trees, including moringa and acacia blossoms. Others are lilies and hibiscus, and more.
The Coffee Pack
This pack includes coffee at several stages of the growing, harvesting, and roasting. You'll find blossoms, berries, and tranquil shots of shade-grown coffee farms in this pack.
Pre-orders are appreciated, but not at all necessary. Email us if you'd like us to set aside a pack or particular card for you, or just ask when you see us. Thanks in advance for taking an interest in this project.

would love the coffee pack, will send you an email
We've sold out... so we made another 450 cards and then sold out of those too! Thanks so much for all of your interest in this project. We'll keep you updated via the blog as to how projects with farmers and school kids are strengthened with that money.
Muchas gracia, amiga!
