Today, July 31st, Vasya's (@Vasyazub) home burned down. As many of you know, his absolutely beautiful greenhouse was attached the side of his house and most of his collection was likely destroyed in this tragic house fire. 

Many people have visited his greenhouse, which was home to incredibly rare plants, some of  we all sold or gave him. Since homeowners insurance does not typically cover crops, such as living plants, I am being proactive in starting this campaign to help reassure him that we are all here for him to help replace his plants.

The goal of this campaign is threefold:

1. To help him finance the reconstruction in his greenhouse.

2. To help him purchase lost specimens of his collection, which is likely to be pretty vast. 

3. To help him finance the boarding of his collection while he is without a greenhouse.

I will periodically provide updates as his situation unfolds.
