Expand the compacted tree wells along a Woodland east-side street.

The street trees on Woodland's east side are boxed into tree wells so small and compacted that the roots have nowhere to grow, and the trees show it in thin, stressed canopy. Expanding each well gives the roots, and the shade they provide, room to actually establish.

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 photo of each expanded tree well

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. Mark the expanded well boundary around each existing tree pit.
2. Remove the compacted pavement or hardscape within the marked boundary by hand tools.
3. Loosen the exposed soil with a hand cultivator, staying clear of visible roots.
4. Spread 2-3 inches of mulch across the expanded well, keeping mulch off the trunk.
5. Water each expanded well slowly until saturated.
6. Photograph each expanded well from the same angle as a before photo.

What counts as done

• Before photo
• After photo with mulch visible
• Count of wells expanded

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.
