All of it: the words, the place, the proof

Harvest what is ripe in the cafe's garden bed at the corner cafe at 4650 Crenshaw Blvd, Hyde Park, Los Angeles, CA 90043. The bed is producing, so get the picked produce straight into the kitchen's prep line. Ripe produce left unharvested spoils on the plant and is lost. For the payer: - Price: $232 per job, counted in pounds harvested, by variety. - Likely payer: A grant-funded nonprofit crew (LA Conservation Corps, LANI, Clean California or CAL FIRE grants), or the site's host. - No license is needed: picking, weighing and delivering produce is not construction work, so no contractor license applies.

Offer to pay $232. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.

This job is not funded yet, so this figure is a proposed price, not money held for the worker. 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.

Safety, read before you claim

Start after the crew's safety orientation. Wash hands before handling, pick only ripe, sound produce, and never deliver spoiled or moldy produce; discard it instead; employer provides water, shade and rests, and N95s at smoke AQI 151 or more; wear closed-toe boots and cut-resistant gloves.

The full safety list for this job:

Wash your hands first and harvest only ripe, sound produce into clean containers; discard anything spoiled, moldy, animal-fouled or recently sprayed, and leave the bed re-mulched, not bare. Work in the cool morning with water and shade close, gloves and closed-toe boots on.
Use clean food-grade containers, and do not pick a bed that was sprayed inside its product label's waiting days. Keep water and shade within reach, and look before you reach under leaves for wasps, black widow spiders and snakes. Cut leafy greens by taking the outer leaves 2 inches above the base and leave the growing point; do not pull whole plants unless the host asks. Use clean pruners or a knife wiped or washed between beds. Keep the harvest in the shade and cool, and hand it over the same day; do not leave produce in a hot car. A tomato or squash that touched soil with animal droppings goes in the discard bucket. Leave the bed re-mulched, not bare.
Site briefing: who to call, where water and a hand-washing station are (Title 8 section 3203).
Harvest in the cool morning, a quart of water an hour, shade breaks, watch each other at 95 degrees F and above (Title 8 section 3395).
Check the air quality index (AQI) for wildfire smoke; at 151 or more do not pick leafy greens for a meal without the host's word and offer an N95 to the crew (Title 8 section 5141.1).
Gloves and a cut-resistant glove for knives and pruners; closed-toe boots for foot protection (Title 8 section 3384).
Wash hands first and after a bathroom stop; do not pick while sick; keep clean containers off the ground (Title 8 section 3203).
Footwear, Title 8 section 3385: closed-toe boots for dropped crates and tool strikes.
Heat, section 3395: drinking water, shade and cool-down rests; shade is ready at 80 F and the high-heat steps start at 95 F.

How this work is done

A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.

Bring

a kitchen scale to weigh the harvest for each variety
clean food-grade containers or crates with lids or cloths
clean pruners or a knife, wiped or washed
a kitchen or luggage scale
gloves
water and soap to wash hands
a cooler or shade cloth for the trip
a little straw or mulch to re-cover the bed

Steps

Obtain the garden steward's or site host's written scope for this harvest before work (the beds, the date, and who receives the harvest) and, if a crew or grantee sent you, its work order. Get the site host's or agency's written consent to work there too. Write what you got at the top of your proof. With no written scope, stop.
Wash hands, go to the garden bed at the restaurant or eatery this job's title names, and record a GPS waypoint standing at the bed.
Ask the host which crops are ripe, when the bed was last sprayed or fertilized, and whether the receiving kitchen has said yes.
Take a before photo showing the whole bed with the produce that is ready to pick.
Pick in the morning. Pick the ripe, sound crops by hand, cut leafy greens at the outer leaves, use clean cutting tools and food-grade containers, sort by variety, and never set produce on the soil.
Set aside visibly spoiled or moldy produce, anything touched by animal or bird droppings or a spray, and anything the host will not vouch for.
Weigh or count the harvest for each variety and write the figures down.
Re-mulch the bed with 1 to 2 inches of clean straw or leaf mulch before the after photo, and say so in the proof.
Take an after photo of the same bed from the same spot.
Take the harvest straight to the kitchen, pantry or shared table the job names, carried cool and shaded. Hand it to a named person and get their name or a photo of the handoff.
Carry the picked produce straight into the kitchen's prep line and hand it over to the kitchen.
Record the kitchen prep line as the destination, then enter the GPS waypoint, both photos, the per-variety weights or counts and the destination in the proof record.

What counts as done

GPS waypoint matches the planted bed
Before and after photos of the bed at harvest
Harvested crop weighed or counted per variety
Destination of the harvest recorded (kitchen prep line)
Photo of the harvest in its container with the scale reading.
The name or initials of the person who received it.
Photos show the bed re-mulched after, no whole plants pulled unless the host asked, and a weight that matches the crates in the photo.
Scope: the garden steward's or site host's written scope for this harvest, and the work order of any crew or grantee that sent you, dated before the first photo.
Site consent: the site host's or agency's written consent to work there, dated before the first photo.
Sign-off: the site host or steward, or the supervisor of the crew of record, signs off the finished work in writing. Write who signed and the date, or the date you asked.
Photos: take the before photo and the after photo from the same point (stand where the first one was taken and match its frame), each with its GPS point and its date and time.

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.

What is promised, and what is not

Three separate acts, never one: a vote is a free signed preference that moves no money; a pledge is free signed backing intent, balance-checked, that moves no money and never marks the packet funded; funding is a real payment, made by the payer straight to the worker, with no Vealth fee. Paying Vealth is closed: Vealth takes no new card or wallet payment for a job. To fund a job, offer to pay the worker directly, then pay them yourself when you accept the proof, from your own wallet or by your own card or bank. From a wallet: prepare_token_offer, sign, submit_token_offer; after the proof is accepted you pay the worker on chain and the worker records it (prepare_token_settlement, or POST /labor/settle for USDC on Base). By card or bank: prepare_direct_offer, sign, submit_direct_offer; you pay the worker yourself and the worker records it with prepare_direct_settlement. Both are free, need no gas, and move no money through Vealth.

Claiming is free. You sign to prove the wallet is yours: no card, no deposit, no fee. Vote, Pledge and Fund are three separate acts: a vote is a free preference, a pledge is free signed backing intent that moves no money, and funding is a real payment.

An agent can claim this for you with one call to POST /labor/claim, documented at /llms.txt.

Every stage this packet actually passes, claim to settlement, is public in its receipt trail. A stage that has not happened is not claimed.

Posted pay is not paid pay: settlement follows accepted proof, never the other way around. Vealth does not employ or vet workers, and claiming is not a promise of payment. See how proof and receipts work.

Other acts: vote, pledge, fund
