Build and mount a little free pantry box at an invited Olivehurst site

Olivehurst and Linda carry deep pockets of poverty a long bus ride from Marysville's services, and end-of-month hunger here is quiet and routine. A weatherproof little free pantry at a trusted host frontage lets neighbors help neighbors with no forms and no gatekeeper. Built solid against valley rain and sun, it serves for years. Standard: Little Free Pantry community-model practice; SDG 2 Zero Hunger. Proof: Photos of built, mounted, stocked box with GPS/date Method (Little Free Pantry community-model practice; SDG 2 Zero Hunger.): 1. Confirm the host mounting site clear of sidewalk width requirements. 2. Build or assemble a weatherproof box with sealed roof and clear door. 3. Mount on a ground-anchored post or the host's fence as agreed. 4. Stock the opening load of shelf-stable goods and post the give-and-take card. 5. Photograph the finished stocked box and record with GPS and date. Done when: Photos of built, mounted, stocked box with GPS/date

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it. Typically 60–120 minutes. Method of record: Michelin Green Star-style 7-criterion sustainability scorecard

Bring

• tablet/clipboard
• camera
• scale (waste weighing scope)
• 7-criterion rubric

Steps

1. 1. Confirm the site + address; arrange a staff escort for back-of-house.
2. 2. Photograph evidence for each criterion: sourcing, waste stream, energy, water, procurement records, seasonality, team practices.
3. 3. Score each of the 7 criteria against the rubric with an evidence note.
4. 4. For a waste audit, weigh or estimate food waste for one service and identify recovery/donation options.
5. 5. Rank the highest-impact improvement recommendations.
6. 6. Enter scores, evidence notes, waste data, recommendations, photos into the proof record; sign.

If it does not match the plan

• Food-safety or hygiene hazard observed -> note and defer to staff; documentation only.
• Significant edible waste -> recommend the EPA Food Recovery Hierarchy (donation before disposal).

What counts as done

• 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

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.
