Tell your family, friends, neighbors….anyone can shop.
ALL MUMS ARE CURRENTLY SOLD OUT.
Blackberry Creek PTO will be doing a fall mum fundraiser!
These beautiful Hardy Fall Mums are grown in a 7″ x 7″ pot. Standard finishing measurements are 14-16″ wide and 11-13″ tall (not including
the pot measurements!) All of the mums are from a local, family-owned greenhouse and are field grown in natural conditions, leading to a hardy robust plant that will last throughout the fall season when cared for properly. Mums will arrive budded or just starting to crack color. Although we try our best to fill each order as specified, on very rare occasions we may need to substitute a color. The substitute color is usually yellow.
Pick up will be Wednesday, September 15th from 3:30-5:30pm at the school.
The PTO is looking for volunteers to help with distribution of the mums. Click below to see how you can help!

Join Us for a virtual grade basket raffle during the month of March!
What are Grade Baskets?
Each grade has a theme for gift baskets and collected donated items to fit into their theme to be raffled off. Our families, students and PTO have put a lot of hard work into making these baskets. ( Some baskets may contain perishables or time sensitive items.) Tickets are 1 for $1/ 6 for $5 and 11 for $10 and can be purchased online here.
Can I see what is in each basket?
You can view an itemized list of what each basket contains here.
How does the raffle work?
On March 8th all raffle tickets will be placed into a bin. Raffle ticket holders will not be able to pick which basket their raffle tickets have a chance of winning, it will be completely random. One basket per day will be raffled off. The winning raffle ticket drawn that day will be streamed live on the PTO facebook page and also announced on the PTO facebook page as well. The winner will be contacted. That winning raffle ticket wins the basket that was assigned to that date (the winner will not choose which basket they want.) That winning raffle ticket will be removed from the bin of raffle tickets, and cannot win again. BUT if you have multiple tickets you can win multiple times! So be sure to buy multiple tickets to increase your chances of winning! There are 15 baskets being raffled off, so 15 chances to win. Winners will be responsible for obtaining winning basket from Tricia Klein.
