Build a humidity-controlled seed bank cabinet at the fellowship hall, St. Maries United Methodist Church, St. Maries, ID 83861

This congregation's community-meal garden program buys new seed every year with no way to save and share what grows well here -- a built, humidity-controlled seed-storage cabinet in the fellowship hall lets the church save its own varieties year over year and share starts with the food-insecure families it serves. Standard: Michelin Green Star-style sourcing/seasonal-practice criteria + seed-library best practice (humidity/temperature-controlled storage); food-security infrastructure build Proof: before/after photos + cabinet construction log (material, seal, desiccant/humidity control) + labeling-system photo + GPS Method (Michelin Green Star-style 7-criterion sustainability scorecard, ~60-120 min): 1. Confirm the site + address; arrange a staff escort for back-of-house. 2. Photograph evidence for each criterion: sourcing, waste stream, energy, water, procurement records, seasonality, team practices. 3. Score each of the 7 criteria against the rubric with an evidence note. 4. For a waste audit, weigh or estimate food waste for one service and identify recovery/donation options. 5. Rank the highest-impact improvement recommendations. 6. Enter scores, evidence notes, waste data, recommendations, photos into the proof record; sign. Equipment: tablet/clipboard, camera, scale (waste weighing scope), 7-criterion rubric Done when: Score recorded for each of the 7 criteria with an evidence note; Food-waste weight/volume recorded (waste-audit scope); Recovery/donation options identified (waste scope); Ranked improvement recommendations + photos + address confirm
