Pay

$240 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.

Proof

before/after photos + GPS

This is exactly what gets it approved. Nothing settles without it.

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.

Steps

1. Lay out the bed/planting footprint on site.
2. Build/prepare it to spec (level, drainage, soil).
3. Plant or finish as named.
4. Photograph before/after with GPS.

What counts as done

• Photo of the site before
• Photo of the built bed
• GPS waypoint

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Living Building Challenge, Place Petal. The Place Petal asks a building to belong to its ground: grow food where it stands, shelter the small wild lives that were there first, and join the neighborhood instead of paving over it. Mastery looks like a lot where vegetable beds share the sun with native shrubs, feeding people and birds from the same soil. Nobody arrives at that whole in one season. You arrive by planting one bed, tending one strip of ground, learning one street's habits of light and water. This packet is one of those honest first plantings.
