Set up a recurring volunteer day.

The no-dig demonstration bed at Goldthwaite Elementary School in Goldthwaite, TX only teaches the practice if people actually see it worked on; a bed built once and left alone reads as landscaping, not as a technique anyone visiting could take home and use on their own ground.

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. You see which before you claim, never after.

Proof

facilities coordination + photo of signage and gathering spot + documented recurring schedule

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. 1. Coordinate with Goldthwaite Elementary School's staff to confirm a recurring date and a safe gathering spot beside the demonstration bed.
2. 2. Set up simple hand-lettered signage at the bed explaining the sheet-mulch, no-dig practice in plain language, and what each visit will do that day, whether topping up mulch, transplanting through the mulch, or cutting spent plants at the soil line.
3. 3. Confirm with staff who leads each round and how visiting residents sign in.
4. 4. Photograph the finished signage and the gathering spot, and document the agreed recurring schedule.

What counts as done

• Written or recorded coordination from the site's staff
• Photo of the hand-lettered signage explaining the no-dig practice
• Photo of the gathering spot beside the demonstration bed
• Documented recurring schedule agreed with staff
• Confirmation that the signage explains the sheet-mulch, no-dig practice in plain language and names what each visit will do

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Soil Health. Soil health is the discovery, now written into USDA standards, that soil is not dirt but a living body: it breathes, digests, holds water, and can sicken or recover. The tests are wonderfully physical. Time how fast water soaks in. See whether a clod holds together in water or falls apart. Smell for the sweetness of organic matter. Mastery looks like a farmer who can read a handful of ground like a page. This packet is one plot examined by those methods and recorded, one honest page in the story of a piece of land.
