Build a seed-starting cold-frame station beside the community garden bed, near the town center, Tyler, TX 75701 (Smith County).

This community garden's raised beds sit empty between harvests every time the growers have to buy nursery starts instead of growing their own -- a small framed, glazed cold-frame seed-starting station lets the garden start its own seedlings a few weeks ahead of the outdoor planting window.

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 + frame level/anchor check + glazing-seal confirm + ventilation-function check + GPS

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. Confirm the ground beside the garden bed is level and clear, and measure the footprint for the cold-frame station.
2. 2. Build the frame at the confirmed footing depth, calling 811 first if any post or footing goes below grade.
3. 3. Install the tempered/safety-rated glazing lid, confirm a weathertight seal, and test that the lid props open and closes fully without a heat-trap risk.
4. 4. Fill the station with a seed-starting mix and start the first tray of seedlings, then photograph the finished, planted station.

What counts as done

• Before photo of the bare/unused ground beside the garden bed
• Frame level and footing/anchor photo
• Glazing-seal photo confirming a weathertight lid
• Ventilation-function check (lid props open and closes fully, no heat-trap risk)

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Edible Garden Cultivation. Edible garden cultivation is food growing done to the standards the land-grant universities have refined for a century: healthy soil in tested beds, the right crop in the right season, hand tools, patience, and records. Mastery looks like a Master Gardener's plot, beds that feed a family most of the year from a piece of ground the size of a parking space. Every gardener who reaches that point started with a single bed and a single season. This packet is that start: one bed built or tended properly, one honest note about what happened.
