Restore the existing tree pits along Mission Street.

What few street trees the Excelsior has fight for their lives in compacted, littered pits along Mission Street's busy sidewalk. Losing an established tree here sets the neighborhood's thin canopy back a decade. Cleaned, loosened, mulched, and watered pits keep the survivors growing.

Pay

$200 proposed

This packet is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price and not money waiting in escrow. If a buyer funds it, approved proof settles that price onchain. If nobody funds it, approved proof earns provable credit toward the work instead of cash — recorded, and readable any time at vealth.net/labor/credit/(your wallet). You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

Before/after photos of each restored pit

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Steps

1. Adopt six or more pits along the corridor and clear trash, weeds, and debris by hand.
2. Loosen surface soil gently, avoiding roots.
3. Mulch 3 inches deep, clear of trunks.
4. Water each living tree slowly with 10 or more gallons.
5. Photograph each pit before and after.

What counts as done

• GPS-tagged before and after photos of six or more pits
• Close-up of mulch clear of trunks
• Dated corridor wide shot

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Urban Canopy. Urban canopy is the layer of leaves over a city, and it is infrastructure as surely as the pipes below the street: shade that cools a block in a heat wave, roots that drink a storm. The i-Tree protocol turns it into something you can count, tree by tree, so a city knows what it has and what it is losing. Mastery looks like a person who can read a whole street's trees at a walk. This packet is a piece of that census: a few trees observed carefully and recorded where the record counts.
