The Bloom and Grow Garden Society is looking to continue its goal and raise funds for the newly installed Winter Garden Heritage Tree Project. 

We first told you about the Winter Garden Heritage Tree Project here, which pays tribute to 100 historical trees across Winter Garden through a scenic tour. 

Now, the society is raising money for the project through an original drawing of the "Tucker Ranch Oak" by Don Reynolds. 

The original drawing showcases the magnificent southern live oak that stands at the entrance of the Tucker Ranch Nature Preserve and is also one of the heritage trees included in the project. The tree has survived multiple floods and hurricanes throughout the years. 

The print is 12 inches by 18 inches, drawn in pencil with light water color accents and printed on 80 pound acid free paper. 

The society created 200 individual numbered and signed prints that have been shrink wrapped with a foam board backing for support.

The prints also come with an information sheet that describes the project and tells the story of the tree's home in Tucker Ranch. 

Proceeds from the print sales will go towards the Winter Garden Heritage Tree Project. 

Prints purchased will be available for next day pick-up during shop hours at the SOBO Art Gallery at 127 S. Boyd St. in Winter Garden.
