Ten projects have been nominated and selected for the Rooted in the Prairies Project by Canterra Seeds to celebrate 25 years in the seed business.
Each project will receive $2,500.
Nominating shareholders were also given the option to either match or increase the donation. If they chose to increase it, the $2,500 donation was given in their choice of seed, and the total profits from the harvest were donated instead.
The project donated more than $161,000 to several organizations.
Todd Moroz, director of ministry and outreach at Broken Arrow Youth Ranch, received more than $68,000 after the initial donation was increased by Petruic Seed Company through the Bushels for Broken Arrow project.
