Found 2 pennies by a waterfall up near Port Severn.
Grand total: 29 cents!
I was a bit embarrassed picking up pennies because my mother-in-law was watching me and so I explained about the goal and she was just kind of like “Oh. Ok, well, yes, I guess that’s one way to collect some money…” weird Oh well. I have two more cents than I did a few weeks ago lol.
I’ve gathered some maple keys and plan to About dot com how to start them into seedlings!
Most helpful information I’ve gathered so far:
“Essentially, you break the wings off the seeds, put them in a jar of warm water, and let them soak for a day, then you put them in some damp peat moss, sand, soil, etc in a plastic bag (with a few holes poked in it) and store the bag in your refrigerator for 90 days or until the seeds begin to sprout. If you start this process today, your seeds should be ready to plant by mid-May.”
