Restore a native prairie segment.

This stretch of the Trinity River west levee toe near Trammell Crow Park is losing native prairie grass and forb cover to invasive grass encroachment, cover that would otherwise steady the levee toe's soil and filter runoff before it reaches the river.

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 plus area-cleared record plus species/seed-mix record plus 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 treatment segment with Trinity Park Conservancy or City of Dallas parks staff and photograph the invasive-grass or bare levee toe segment before starting.
2. 2. Working from stable footing on the levee slope, hand-clear invasive grass and woody encroachment from the levee toe with hand tools only, no power equipment.
3. 3. Hand-plant native prairie grass and forb plugs or hand-broadcast a native seed mix at the design spacing along the cleared segment.
4. 4. Water in the planting where accessible and photograph the finished restoration from the matching before vantage, recording species and count or seed mix and area.

What counts as done

• Before photo of the invasive-grass or bare levee toe segment
• Area of invasive grass hand-cleared recorded
• Confirmation only hand tools were used
• Native prairie species and count, or seed mix and area seeded, recorded
• After photo of the restored segment from the matching vantage

Proof is measured against these, not judged by taste.

The standard this serves

Watershed Health. A watershed is everything the land pours into a stream, and the stream keeps the record. The EPA's bioassessment method reads that record through the small creatures living in the gravel: mayflies and caddisflies mean clean water, only worms and midges mean trouble. Mastery looks like a person who can wade one riffle with a net and tell you how the whole valley is doing. That skill is built sample by sample. This packet is one of them: one site, one careful count, one entry in the long record of a stream.
