Plant a small fruit-tree orchard.

This public elementary school's schoolyard has a bare, paved-and-fenced corner with no shade and no food-bearing planting at all. A small orchard of right-sized dwarf fruit trees gives students a multi-year growing project and puts real fruit in reach of the neighborhood's own kids.

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

GPS waypoints per tree + before/after orchard photos + species/spacing log + mulch/watering-basin confirm per tree

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 bare corner is clear of buried utilities via an 811 locate before any digging.
2. 2. Lay out tree spacing matched to the corner's sun exposure and the dwarf variety's mature spread.
3. 3. Dig each planting hole, set the tree at grade, and backfill without burying the root flare.
4. 4. Mulch each tree 2-3 inches deep, held off the trunk, and form a watering basin around the base.
5. 5. Water each tree in fully and photograph the planted orchard with a GPS waypoint per tree.

What counts as done

• GPS waypoint per planted tree inside the posting radius on utility-cleared ground
• Before photo of the bare corner + after photo of the planted orchard from matching vantage
• Dwarf fruit-tree species and spacing log matched to the schoolyard's sun exposure
• Mulch applied 2-3 inches deep and held off each trunk, with a watering basin formed and watered in per tree

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.
