Set up a shared compost hub.

Fund it for $700. Proof lands onchain when it's done.

$700 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.

Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee.

What the work involves

The taquerias and panaderias along 18th Street between Blue Island and Damen, Pilsen, Chicago, IL 60608 each send prep scraps to the trash -- one shared, rodent-resistant hub gives the corridor a place to divert them together.

The creator wallet. Its signature is what approves proof and settles the wage.

How this work is done

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

Bring

  • finished compost meeting the quality spec (temperature-cured; STA/US Composting Council tested where available)
  • spreader, wheelbarrow + rakes/shovels at garden scale
  • camera + GPS + tape/bucket for rate calibration
  • gloves + dust mask for dry material handling

Steps

  1. 1. ASSESS: photograph the application area as found, record GPS boundary and area, and confirm the application rate (tons/acre or inches of depth) and compost quality documentation against the plan.
  2. 2. Calibrate the rate (bucket-per-area or spreader pass test) so the applied depth matches the plan.
  3. 3. Apply compost evenly across the area; keep material out of waterways, drains, and off pavement (sweep any spill back onto soil).
  4. 4. Incorporate or leave surface-applied exactly per the plan (no-till surface application is valid under CPS 336).
  5. 5. VERIFY: photograph the finished application from matching vantage + a depth-check photo (ruler in the applied layer) at ≥3 points; log source, quantity, rate, and date as the application record.

What counts as done

  • Before photo of the bare/unused alley ground
  • After photo of the built, rodent-resistant bin system with a lid
  • Signage photo (what goes in, what doesn't, contact info) in English and Spanish
  • First-charge log (source, quantity, carbon:nitrogen layering)

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The money and the proof

What is promised, and what is not.

Funding this work is a purchase or a vote, same act: you either want this done here, or you want the world to contain it. A vote is free and signed; funding starts at one cent and anything beyond the wage is recorded as a premium for the worker. Either way the money settles only on accepted proof. An agent can fund it in one x402 call: POST /nurture/fund {"workId":"WORK_1787185950146_9wxsel2","funderWallet":"0xYOU"}.

An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.

Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.

Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.
