MTPA To Present “Once On This Island”

By Ann Mead Ash

In the fall of 1990, Mark Wagner, director of the Manheim Township Performing Arts (MTPA), and his wife, Beth, entered a theater on Broadway to see a musical they knew nothing about called “Once on This Island.” “We couldn’t have been more delighted with our choice,” said Mark. “We were enthralled with a beautiful tale of the power and persistence of love in the midst of prejudice.”

Later that decade, Mark directed the show on the

Manheim Township High School (MTHS) stage, and now he is preparing to do it again. MTPA will present “Once on This Island” on Thursday, Friday, and Saturday, March 14, 15, and 16, at 7:30 p.m. in the MTHS auditorium, 115 Blue Streak Blvd., Lancaster.

“Once on This Island” is a celebration of the human heart written by Lynn Ahrens and Stephen Flaherty that combines “My Love, My Love”

by Rosa Guy with Hans Christian Andersen’s “The Little Mermaid.” The story opens on

a storm-tossed island as the inhabitants comfort a frightened little girl, played by Kristen Bennett, by telling the story of an orphan named Ti Moune, who was destined to love too much for a human heart to bear. The villagers telling the story transform into the characters, including Ti Moune, played by Annalise Prentiss, and her rich, ill-fated love, Daniel, played by Nicolas Rivera. Daniel rejects her for Andrea, “one of his own,” played by Annyka Savin. Ti Moune’s foster parents, Mama Euralie and Tonton Julian, are See MTPA pg 3

Members of the cast of the Manheim Township Performing Arts production of “Once on This Island” rehearse to present the play at Manheim Township High School on March 14, 15, and 16.

MAKEUP AND MORE

will be offered on Saturday, March 16, from 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. at Hotel Rock Lititz, 50 Rock Lititz Blvd., Lititz. The class will teach makeup application, how to develop a clown persona, clown etiquette, and the role of clowns at the Make-A-Wish Mother’s Day Truck Convoy. There is a cost to attend, which includes a makeup kit, lunch, and class materials. For reservations, contact Amy Nolt at 717-587-9841.

About three years ago, Homes of Hope, a program of Love INC, had a presence in Manheim, but a lack of partnering churches caused the committee to dissolve. About 18 months ago, Bill Melone, community care minister with Manheim Brethren in Christ, and Karl McKinney, pastor with Erisman Mennonite Church, connected to form a new committee.

Fast forward to March of 2019, and Manheim now has a steering committee of four headed by Melone, as well as a home in the downtown area occupied by a family that has been approved for the Homes of Hope program. According to Melone, the committee came together with a focus on the need for affordable housing in the area and connected with Love INC, which currently oversees 10 Homes of Hope in eight Lancaster County communities. During the summer of 2018, a house became available in Manheim, and the committee signed a lease and enlisted volunteer help in preparing the home for a family.

“People in the community joined together to help with decorating, and all the furniture has been donated,” said Melone, who noted that members of the

sewing circle at Erisman Mennonite have donated comforters.

The comforters, coupled with furniture donated by other volunteers, create a decor that is both contemporary and comfortable. “It has really come together,” said Melone.

To qualify, families must complete an intake assessment with a Homes of Hope coordinator. “(Candidates) must be families with children and typically (live) in the school district or an adjoining school district,” explained Melone, who added that referrals often come from the school district’s social worker. The family must have ex perienced homelessness, although qualifying families may be staying with family members. A typical stay in a Homes of Hope home lasts four to five months, although a family may stay six months under certain circumstances.

Just as important as the physical home is the support that the occupying family will receive from trained mentors and budget coaches. Rick Thompson, who is a member of the Warwick Homes of Hope committee as a representative of St. James Catholic Church in Lititz, said that regular contact with mentors and budget

coaches is essential. “The financial circumstances of these families (call for) weekly guidance with the budget coach mentors,” said Thompson, who added that goals and expectations for the families are set by the coordinator as well as the budget coaches and mentors.

Financial goals involve finding ways to save for the security deposit and first month’s rent on the family’s next apartment, but other types of goals are set as well. “(Goals may include) getting on track regarding doctors’ appointments or making sure transportation for everyone in the household is taken care of,” said Thompson.

Thompson noted that the Warwick program has been in place for more than five years.

Five families have lived in the current house, which was acquired for use in 2016. “We have had varied experiences (with families),” explained Thompson. “Sometimes people have run the course and may or may not be equipped to make the jump to independence, but we have had some who made it.” He noted that homelessness is not usually the only issue facing families who take part in the program. He named health issues, transportation issues, and

employment issues among the problems that the families must overcome. “The jobs of the mentors and budget coaches are admirable,” he said, adding that families that take part should always benefit from receiving education that they can transfer to future situations.

The Warwick Homes of Hope committee currently has about a dozen participants representing nine churches. “Most are smaller churches, and this is their way of contributing to the housing needs of local people,” explained Thompson.

Looking to Warwick’s program as a model, Melone hopes to see more churches represented on the Manheim committee. Readers who wish to help with the Manheim program may contact Melone at bill@manheimbic.org.

Pictured on front: Rick

Thompson (left), a member of the Warwick Homes of Hope committee; Bill Melone (seated in center), the head of the Manheim Homes of Hope committee; and Karl McKinney (right), a member of the Manheim committee, are happy to have a family living in the house that has been prepared in Manheim to aid families in overcoming homelessness.

A Touch Of The Irish For Scouts’ Spaghetti Dinner The timing of Boy Scout Troop 64’s annual spaghetti dinner is such that this year’s event will have an extra bit of flair. The allyou-can-eat meal will be held at Salem United Church of Christ of Rohrerstown, 2312 Marietta Ave., Lancaster from 4 to 7 p.m. on Saturday, March 16, which is the day before St. Patrick’s Day. In honor of the Irish holiday, an array of shamrock-themed crafts will be available for children to make while adults socialize. Attendees are also invited to wear green, said assistant Scoutmaster Nina Evans.

Following the tradition set by the originators of the spaghetti dinner, the menu will feature spaghetti and meatballs, salad, bread, desserts, and beverages.

Meatless and gluten-free entrée options will be available. Also, as is tradition, the Scouts will lead rousing renditions of the song “On Top of Spaghetti” at least three times during the meal, said Scoutmaster Pat Evans.

Tickets are required for admission to the dinner, and they may be purchased from a member of Troop 64 or by calling Nina at 717-572-3448. Tickets may also be purchased at the door.

The proceeds from the dinner will be divided between Troop 64’s group account and the Scouts’ individual accounts. The group account is used to fund sponsorships for Scouts to attend National Youth Leadership Training and to subsidize the cost of summer camp. The boys’ accounts help to make it possible for them to go camping and take part in other adventures.

Highlights this year will include a week of summer camp at Rodney Scout Reservation in Maryland and attendance at World Jamboree, which will take place in West Virginia. World Jamboree was last held in the United States in 1967.

“It’s an opportunity for our Scouts to see what Scouting is like around the world,” Pat explained, adding that trading council patches will be one of the tools used to break the ice among unfamiliar Scouts. “(Trading) forces them to interact with people they wouldn’t otherwise.”

A group of 16 Scouts and four adults plans to venture to World Jamboree. In order to save money, the group will stay at a campsite and prepare most of its own meals. The cost per person will be about $500.

“We try to keep it as cheap as we can,” Pat said. “Scouting is thrifty. It’s part of the Scout law.”

Fruit Growers MTPA from pg 1 Plan Workshop The Backyard Fruit Growers will present an Apple Grafting Workshop from 1 to 4 p.m. on Saturday, March 23, at Landis Valley Village and Farm Museum, 2451 Kissel Hill Road, Lancaster.

The workshop will include an instruction class, followed by a guided grafting session, where experienced grafters will assist and instruct. The per-person fee includes materials for grafting two trees. More materials may be purchased for a nominal fee. Participants may choose from 100 antique and modern varieties.

To register, visit http://landis valleymuseum.org, click “View More Events,” and scroll to the event on March 23. Registration is also available by calling Landis Valley at 717-569-0401.

The Backyard Fruit Growers members gather several times each year to share fruit-growing ideas and fellowship.

played by Anaya Milligan and Mason Norris, respectively, and Daniel’s father, Armand, is played

by Xavier Cedeno-Brava. Under the watchful eyes of Erzulie, goddess of love, portrayed by April Marion; Asaka, mother of the earth, played by Yasmin Nicholas; Agwe, god of water, played by Grant Dombach; and the dreaded Papa Ge, demon of death, portrayed by Baird Thompson, the storytellers and Ti Moune discover love, rejection, prejudice, and even death-defying forgiveness.

According to Mark, the Wagners enjoyment of the musical was based in part on its simplicity.

“One of the reasons that we fell in love with ‘Once on This Island’ is that its effectiveness relies on the ability of the actors to tell a simple and powerful story,” explained Mark, who noted that the musical stands out in a time

Still, there will be plenty of fun and educational things to do. The group plans to go whitewater rafting, ziplining, mountain biking, and hiking. “Hopefully (they’ll work on) a conservation project while they’re there,” Nina said. “There are lots of opportunities.”

In April, the entire troop will have the chance to work on a conservation project close to home. In conjunction with the Alliance for the Chesapeake Bay,

Troop 64 will plant a riparian buffer along Brubaker Run in Rader Park, which is located next to Homestead Village. The Scouts have committed to maintain the buffer for two years.

Membership in Troop 64 is open to boys ages 11 to 18. The group meets on Tuesdays at 7 p.m. at Salem Church. For more information about the troop or the spaghetti dinner, readers may call Nina at 717-572-3448.

period when special effects and lavish sets are popular. “‘Once on This Island’ rests on the performers’ capacity to create and to engage us,” Mark explained.

The show boasts more than 20 songs that Mark noted overflow with a sense of joy. He noted that many songs should elicit smiles from audience members, including an early number called “We Dance.”

Challenges of the show, according to Mark, include teaching to actors to sustain their focus since the full cast is on stage throughout the show.

“The cast (members are) working hard to make sure that they are fully engaged in telling the story throughout the musical,” said Mark, who added that the students love the material.

“Many of them were familiar with the show, and some had

even seen the recent Broadway revival,” he noted.

Excited to share a musical for which he and his wife feel so much affection, Mark is looking forward to the ways the production might affect audience members. “We hope that the audiences will leave our production having fallen in love with this touching and beautiful musical tale,” he stated. “We hope that its core idea of love being stronger than prejudice will resonate with everyone who comes to see it.”

Tickets will be available at the school box office in the auditorium lobby on Monday, March 11, from 6:30 to 8 p.m. Tickets may also be purchased online at http://mtpa.mtwp.net.

and decoding. Recent research suggests dyslexia affects up to 20 percent of the population, reported Children’s Dyslexia Center director Heather Hinkel. People with dyslexia typically have above-average intelligence, but they can struggle in a traditional academic setting. Those who do not receive help can suffer devastating personal consequences; Hinkel noted that dyslexia tops the list of reasons teenagers drop out of school. Dyslexia is treatable with remediation.

Since 2002, the Children’s Dyslexia Center of Lancaster has tutored more than 175 students with a dyslexic profile. The center serves children on a firstcome, first-served basis regardless of race, ethnicity, economic status, or religious affiliation.

While there is no fee to the students served, it costs the center approximately $5,000 to tutor one child for one year. The center also certifies adults as tutors in Orton-Gillingham and each year offers four scholarships toward the cost of training.

What You Can Expect • A thorough assessment that will determine the underlying cause or causes of your pain.

• A level of personal care with a “hands-on,” manual therapy approach, to relieve your pain.

Most of our patients tell us they have not experienced this before.

• Excellent results – accomplished by working together with your Doctor of Physical Therapy every visit. Most patients decrease or stop medication use, and get back to doing what they enjoy doing – walking, hobbies, travel, family activities, or sports.

What Our Patients Say “At the time of my initial consult at Hershey Orthopedic & Spine Rehab, I had been experiencing neck, shoulder, and arm pain for several months. The range of motion in my left arm and my upper body strength had decreased significantly. Following examination, my therapist outlined the physical problems that were present, and prescribed a program of manual therapy and focused exercise. Working with him and his team over the past several weeks, I have gained increased flexibility, improved strength and range of motion, and am free of pain in my arms, shoulders, and neck. Not only have my goals been achieved, they have been exceeded!”

* Local physician and professor of surgery “I had seen other health care practitioners for treatment for chronic low back pain and leg pain.

They had tried numerous treatments on my back and it wasn’t getting any better. I scheduled an evaluation with Paul at Hershey Orthopedic & Spine Rehab, and based on his evaluation, he suggested I see an orthopedic surgeon to look at my hip. The surgeon felt that my hip was the problem and I needed a hip replacement. I underwent a hip replacement and did my rehab with Paul and his crew. I am now pain-free, so much stronger, walking normal, and back to golfing. I highly recommend Paul and the staff at Hershey Orthopedic & Spine Rehab – they are knowledgeable, professional, and I’m doing so well because of their attention.” * Mike – retired teacher, golfer.

will happen when the music stops. “(When the band) takes a break, (we will) talk about the (Access to Opportunities) AfterSchool Program,” said Divet.

The second St. Patrick’s Day Big Band Celebration, which will benefit the after-school program, will be held at The E, 2120 Oregon Pike, Lancaster, on Saturday, March 16, from 7 to 11 p.m. in the ballroom. Big band music provided by Corsair Blue Jazz Orchestra (CBJO), heavy hors d’oeuvres, and green beverages will all be featured at the fundraiser.

Divet laid out the evening’s schedule by noting that doors will open at 7 p.m. and that background music will be played while appetizers are served. “We will make an introduction and (explain) where the proceeds will go,” said Divet, who noted that the band will begin to play at 8 p.m. During the band’s break at 9 p.m., attendees will learn about the Access to Opportunities program and be given a chance to donate. Individuals will receive a carnation colored to designate a specific donation amount. Divet noted that carnations will be colored green and gold. The band will then resume playing until 10 p.m.

CBJO is known for its repertoire of American big band music performances that aim to bring nostalgia and celebrate the nation’s history. CBJO will perform music associated with wellknown favorites including Glenn Miller, Count Basie, Tommy Dorsey, and other great artists of that era.

In addition, a dancing group known as The Ladybirds will perform. “(The Ladybirds) will encourage others to get up and dance,” said Divet, who added that dancing will be strongly encouraged this year. Organizers

hope to have members of the local ballroom dance and swing dance communities present as well.

The Access to Opportunities After-School Program currently serves nearly 30 students in grades two through four from Nitrauer and Brecht elementary schools. “The students come Monday, Tuesday, and Thursday from 4 to 6 p.m.,” said Divet, who explained that the students are served a hot meal provided by a partnership with the Central Pennsylvania Food Bank. The program includes yoga and other physical activities. Academically, there has been a focus on literacy. “ We had education students from Millersville University doing one-on-one literacy intervention, and the students loved that,” shared Divet.

W hile the program has emphasized literacy, Divet noted that providing an allinclusive Science, Technology, Engineering, and Math (STEM) component has been a goal of the program. The E is working with the North Museum in a partnership to provide a STEM program to the students.

Funds raised at the St. Patrick’s Day Big Band Celebration will help cover the costs of that program.

Divet also hopes to raise the funds necessary to potentially hold a two-week summer program. Although the program would probably focus on literacy, a number of other activities could be included, such as yoga, team-building exercises, nutritional education, and more.

Tickets for the dance may be obtained by searching “St. Patrick’s Day Big Band Celebration,” on Eventbrite. Tickets may also be purchased in person at The E.

To expand the reach and impact of high-quality drug and alcohol abuse prevention services, Compass Mark supports local coalitions that are doing prevention work in the community. This year, Compass Mark received funds from the Lancaster County Drug and Alcohol Commission to award several mini-grants to projects. Compass Mark recently announced it awarded more than $26,000 in mini-grants to four Lancaster County coalitions for prevention projects that will be implemented between now and June.

Grant recipients include Ephrata Cares, Lancaster County Recovery Alliance (LCRA), Donegal Substance Abuse Alliance (DSAA), and The Bridges Poverty Task Force.

The Ephrata Public Library, Ephrata Cares, and the Northern Lancaster HUB will design, facilitate, and staff a 21-week character education afterschool program for tweens and teenagers in the Ephrata community. Designed around 12 values to strengthen and increase community protective factors against substance abuse and addiction, the after-school program, called “Character Matters,” will take place at the Ephrata Public Library. The library will also provide reading materials for families and teenagers to educate themselves about substance abuse and addiction.

LCRA will introduce the Media Education Project (MEP), which focuses on sharing evidence-based education as well as prevention strategies with the media, so that they can maximize their role as leaders in this community health issue.

The primary focus will be on the use of language and attitude as well as the depiction of those affected by addiction in the media. The LCRA MEP team

will meet with representatives from local media outlets, comprising print, radio, digital, and television, to educate them face-to-face about the disease of addiction and language and image standards.

DSAA will host bi-monthly family retreats where adult family members attend a full day of education about addiction, self-care, and family issues. Many people struggle to understand addiction and how it changes their loved one’s behavior. The family retreats will provide access to education and resources that can help families better support and assist their loved ones, while also teaching self-care tactics to keep the family unit healthy.

The Bridges Poverty Task Force aims to support the health and the ability of individuals to withstand challenges, such as poverty. With their grant, they will host collaboration meetings within the community to address the needs and barriers of those experiencing poverty or other social problems. The meetings will help build awareness of the Bridges Task Force, build community, and provide access to resources to those unable to find help or unaware that help exists. The organization will also host monthly dinners during which providers and parents will be invited to share and collaborate around needs and resources.

Compass Mark’s mission is to prevent addiction through education, skill-building, and community mobilization. The nonprofit serves Lancaster and Lebanon counties and seeks to guide and empower all people toward healthy, fulfilling lives free from addiction. More information is available at www.compassmark.org.

Streaks Finish 5th in Districts, Qualify for States The Blue Streaks’ strong second quarter helped them pull ahead 26-10 in Thursday’s contest at Cumberland Valley. Despite an Eagles comeback effort in the third period, the Streaks finished strong with a 16-11 run in the fourth.

Senior Will Greiner dropped in a game-high 17 points. “He was unreal,� Johns commented. “That was a season high for him and was one point off his career high. “His career high came in a triple overtime game last year,� continued the coach. “This was 17 points in regulation.�

Crespo and Vicidomini poured in 12 and 11, respectively. Mickey Stokes, Engle and Oldac each finished with four points.

SWIMMING Gabby Stramara, Charlie Gingrich and the Blue Streaks made quite a splash at the District Three Class-AAA swimming and diving championships at Cumberland Valley High School on Friday and Saturday, March 1-2.

Gingrich, who was also part of the boys’ 200-yard freestyle and 200-yard medley relay squads, earned the gold in the 100-yard butterfly in recordsetting fashion. He won the event in 48.79 seconds on Friday. “He has been determined and looking to reach this goal of his,� said head coach Dan Graybill. “He was trying to get under 50 seconds and he not only achieved that, he broke the district record and our school record.�

Stramara won the girls’ 100 fly with a time of 56.22. Graybill explained that the victory wasn’t as clear cut, however. “There was another girl breathing down her neck and no time came up when Gabby finished because she didn’t hit the wall firmly enough,� he explained. “It was determined that she had a faster time by 67 one-hundredths of Staff photo a second.�

Earlier in the week, victory number 19 was crucial for the Streaks in order to keep their season alive.

On Tuesday, Township’s Tyler Crespo could not be stopped. The senior scored 38 points, 15 of which came on the five three-point baskets he sized up perfectly. He was also 9-for-11 at the foul line. “In the second half of that game he was absolutely amazing,� said Johns. “He willed us to victory, scoring 31 of his points in the second half.�

That 19th victory was nearly a nervous breakdown as the Panthers clawed ahead to a 30-21 halftime advantage. Township responded with a 22-15 run in the third and managed to pull even at 61-61 at the end of regulation. The Streaks outscored the Panthers 13-8 in the extra period. “We got outscored in the second quarter,� Johns added. “We didn’t have a lot of energy or flow.�

Also contributing to the Township offense were Tyler Vicidomini (14 pts.) and Brendan Mellott (13 pts.), the latter of whom made a pair of treys. “Tyler Vicidomini had a very good second half as did Brendan Mellott and Zach Oldac,� added the coach. “Jon Engel, Ben Mann, and Colin Yablonski did some nice stuff for us defensively.�

Graybill was asked about Prevost’s contribution as the anchor in both events. “Jackson really stepped up for us,� replied the coach. “You can count on him to do a very good split when he’s anchoring the relay.�

Prevost’s split in the medley relay was 21.89 seconds while he did a 21.66 in the 200 free relay.

Also on the first day of competition, the Township girls’ 200 free relay team of Wylie-Thal, Stramara, Faith Forman and Diana Lamont posted an eighth-place time of 1:41.49.

On Saturday, Pyott was in the topfive for the 100 breaststroke with a time of 1:06.11. Liz Perot finished fourth in the 500 free. “She dropped 10 seconds with a time of 5:09.60,� Graybill noted.

Rob Perot took fifth in the boys’ 500 free with a time of 4:41.66 while Gingrich earned fourth (46.35) in the 100 breaststroke.

Community Events

Students Use Exercise Ball Chairs because they must constantly move to maintain their balance.

According to Samantha Wharton, one of the school’s SixthGrade Academy teachers, having the chairs has allowed her to create a variety of work spaces for students to collaborate, especially for STEM projects.

La Academia is a public charter school with an enrollment of 220 students in grades six through 12. The school offers a small individualized program for students in Lancaster County from area school districts. For more information, readers may visit www.lapcs.org or find the school on Facebook and Twitter.

Students in La Academia Partnership Charter School’s SixthGrade Academy use isokinetic exercise ball chairs in their class.

The ball chairs allow for more flexible seating around the room because they are easy to move.

The chairs also help students release pent-up energy, and they are believed to help students concentrate, especially when ADHD is a factor. For some students with a sensory processing disorder or ADHD, being in motion allows their brains to be engaged.

When children sit on ball chairs, they can direct their natural kinesthetic energy and need for movement in a positive way,

LEFC Holds Groundbreaking Lancaster Evangelical Free Church (LEFC) held a groundbreaking celebration on Feb. 10.

The congregation cheered as temporary modular buildings were demolished to prepare the way for a significant expansion. The modular buildings housed the church office and other ministries for more than two decades.

The vision behind the expansion is called Creating Space/Expecting Harvest. In addition to new office space, LEFC will add a 1,100-seat worship space, a large lobby, secure classrooms and large gathering spaces for children, a youth ministry space, additional classrooms for adults and community groups, and a permanent baptistry.

LEFC was started in the late 1970s by a group of Lancaster Bible College professors. The first official meeting was held in the Neffsville Fire Hall in 1980. The congregation later moved to the

Lititz Rec Center and then purchased the Rome Mill Restaurant, now known as The Mill, in 1985.

Ten years later, LEFC dedicated a new building at the current site on Pierson Road, across the street from The Mill. Since then, several expansions have been completed.

According to senior pastor Tony Hunt, the new expansion is sched- Lancaster Evangelical Free Church recently held a uled to be finished and in use by groundbreaking celebration.

STRONGHOLD PROPERTY SERVICES

The Lancaster County Conservation District (LCCD) is holding its 45th annual tree seedling sale.

Orders for conifers, hardwoods, wildlife food sources, groundcover, and pollinator-friendly perennials will be accepted through Monday, March 11. The preordered and prepaid plants will be ready for pickup on Thursday, April 11, in the auditorium at the Farm and Home Center, 1383 Arcadia Road, Lancaster.

“That’s the weekend before Easter,” remarked education coordinator Sallie Gregory. “Hopefully folks will consider purchasing (plants) to celebrate Easter and Earth Day, which is on April 22.”

Gregory explained that conservation districts were created in response to the Dust Bowl, in which windstorms caused massive soil erosion in the Midwest in the early 1930s. Men and boys employed by the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) planted trees around the nation, including Pennsylvania, to reduce erosion, especially along streambanks. The first Earth Day was observed in 1970, and the LCCD launched its first tree seedling sale in 1974 to celebrate Earth Day and honor the CCC. “It combined the effort to make trees available to everybody and conserve soil and waterways,” Gregory shared.

The tree sale has continued for nearly a half-century. It is the only

fundraising event for the LCCD, which, as an annex to county government, receives some public funding as well as grants and private contributions. The funds are used to provide education and watershed programs, which are held in classrooms or on individual waterways where volunteers are working on stream cleanups, Gregory said. The education programs are available for teachers in kindergarten through grade 12, as well as college classes, and all lessons meet state standards for environment and ecology. LCCD also works with classes to perform stream studies, which assess the health of a waterway by cataloging and counting plant, insect, and fish life.

There is a second, equally important reason for the seedling sale.

“We’re making trees and other plants accessible for county residents to put in the soil to keep it in place so it doesn’t erode due to wind or rain,” Gregory said. Many of the plants also serve dual purposes, whether it is providing food for people or wildlife or acting as windbreaks or Christmas trees.

The sale organizers make sure they are offering as many native species as possible, and they work with area nurseries to get appropriate stock for the sale. New offerings this year include coralberry, which holds its bright berries through the start of winter, and three self-pollinating fruit trees:

At the culmination of a prior tree seedling sale, Nate Straw (left) and Eric Knoll dipped seedlings in root preservative gel.

The 45th annual sale, which benefits the Lancaster County Conservation District, is being held now, with orders due March 11. Pickup will be April 11 at the Farm and Home Center.

Montmorency sour cherry, Klondike white peach, and Coralstar peach.

The majority of trees on the sale list are bare root stock that will be dipped in a root preservative gel so that buyers will not have to plant their purchases immediately. As the trees are seedlings, the sale is also offering tubes with stakes designed to protect young plants from stressors and potential damage from deer, moles, voles, and other creatures that would eat their roots or stems.

To see a pictorial description list of all species and access an order form, readers may visit www.lancasterconservation.org.

For more information or to request that an order form be mailed to them, folks may call the LCCD at 717-299-5361, ext. 5.

Payment is due when orders are placed and must be sent to the LCCD. The office is located at the Farm and Home Center and is open from 7:30 a.m. to 4 p.m. on Mondays through Fridays.
