Build new raised beds.

North Richmond has real urban farms and garden projects but never enough built beds for the families who want plots, and its industrial-era soils make raised beds with clean imported soil the right way to grow food here. Each new bed is a family's produce line for years.

Pay

$300 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

Build-sequence photos plus host confirmation

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 placement and dimensions with the garden host.
2. Build a 4x8 ft frame from untreated lumber, squared and screwed at corners.
3. Line the base with cardboard and landscape fabric, then fill with the garden's clean soil-compost mix.
4. Rake flat, edge the path with wood chips, and label the bed.
5. Photograph the finished bed with the host and record the plot number.

What counts as done

• Before, during, and after photos of the build
• Photo of the liner and clean fill going in
• GPS-tagged, dated photo with host confirmation noted

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.
