And if you see a Hemlock tree along the way, it's even better!

That’s because it is 🤪

What a great group of students!

For Earth Day, Our 5th graders raised money for the Hemlock Tree Non- profit organization in order to save this species of trees. They raised a total of $184 which will enable 100 trees to be saved. The winning homeroom was Miss Evans’s homeroom and they received a popsicle party. Pictured are The Hemlock Tree organizers David and Carla Hedden along with Warrior Honor advisor/ teacher Sabrina Ray. Also pictured are our Warrior Honor officers: Lydia Pipkin, Isaac Clay, Taylor Brown and Caroline Thomas.

This is the hemlock that is poisonous, not the Hemlock tree.....

Stay away from this stuff!! This is Poison Hemlock and it can hurt you..bad.

Due to our very wet spring, this stuff is thriving and growing fast! In the coming weeks you will see fields of white flowers.

Not all white flowers are bad. So,how do you know what's poisonous and what isn't ? Look at the stem. If you see purple splotches then that is a sign it's poison hemlock.

If you touch this, then imagine poison ivy but x100.
