Build a barrier-lined community garden bed with imported soil.

Bell's families want growing space, but the city sits in the Exide fallout footprint, so any community bed has to be built lead-safe: contained, lined, and filled with certified imported soil. One more properly built bed at a host-invited site is one more family growing food safely above the ground.

Pay

$220 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

Barrier, soil-label, and planted-bed photos

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. Confirm the bed spot with the site host on covered or paved ground.
2. Lay permeable landscape fabric across the footprint and assemble a frame at least twelve inches deep.
3. Fill only with bagged or delivered certified garden soil and compost.
4. Plant and water in a starter crop with the host.
5. Photograph the fabric barrier, soil labels, and planted bed with date and GPS.

What counts as done

• Photo of the base barrier before filling
• Photo of soil bag labels or delivery slip
• GPS-tagged photo of the finished planted bed with date

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.
