All of it: the words, the place, the proof
Install a small, fenced native-forb nursery bed at South Los Angeles Wetlands Park, 5413 S Avalon Blvd, Los Angeles, CA 90011. The park's habitat plantings all rely on trucked-in stock at real cost and real transport emissions, with no on-site propagation capacity at all. It lets the park grow its own pollinator-plant stock for future plantings here and at nearby sites. There is no on-site way to grow native pollinator plants, so planting stock is trucked in. The site has bare ground and no propagation bed, so every plant is trucked in. For the payer: - Price: $520 per job, counted in nursery beds built. - Likely payer: A grant-funded nonprofit crew (LA Conservation Corps, LANI, Clean California or CAL FIRE grants), or the site's host. - Public money rule: if a public agency pays for this job, California treats it as public works (Labor Code 1720). On public works over $1,000 every worker is paid at least the state prevailing wage for the craft (Labor Code 1771) and the contractor keeps certified payroll (Labor Code 1776); on a project over $25,000 the contractor must be registered with the Department of Industrial Relations (Labor Code 1725.5). The crew works under the payer's contractor of record. - No license is needed while the whole job, labor and materials together, stays under $1,000 (Business and Professions Code section 7048); at $1,000 or more, a CSLB C-27 Landscaping license.
Offer to pay $520. The receipt lands onchain once the proof is approved.
Safety, read before you claim
After the crew's safety orientation, untreated/food-safe-equivalent lumber and wildlife-safe fencing only; call 811 before any post-hole digging. Los Angeles County Parks/park operator coordination precedes work; employer provides water, shade and rests, and N95s at smoke AQI 151 or more; wear safety-toe boots and leather gloves.
The full safety list for this job:
- Gear, Title 8 sections 3385 and 3384: safety-toe boots for falling lumber and nails underfoot; leather gloves for splinters and nails.
- Wildfire smoke, section 5141.1: at a PM2.5 AQI of 151 or more the employer provides N95 respirators for voluntary use and moves the work indoors or cuts exposure where feasible; above AQI 500 respirators are required under a respiratory protection program.
- 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.
- Orientation, section 3203: the crew's injury and illness prevention program orientation comes before any work.
How this work is done
How this work is done
A documented method, so this packet comes out the same whoever does it.
Steps
- Obtain the site host's written scope for this nursery bed build before work (the bed, the date, and who tends it) 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.
- Confirm the park operator has approved the bed location, then call 811 and wait for the locate marks before setting any posts.
- Photograph the bare or unused ground where the bed will go as the before photo and record a GPS point.
- Mark the outline of the small nursery bed on the ground.
- Set the corner posts and build the untreated lumber frame, then check it with a level and adjust until the frame is level.
- Attach wildlife-safe fencing around the frame.
- Fill the bed with soil in layers and mix in the amendment suited to growing native forbs from seed.
- Measure the soil depth at several points in the bed and write the soil-fill depth log with the amendment note.
- Write the seed and propagation plan naming the pollinator species to be grown out.
- Photograph the framed, fenced, filled bed with the level check visible as the after photo and record all proof.
What counts as done
- Before photo of the bare/unused ground
- After photo of the framed, fenced, filled nursery bed on a level check
- Soil-fill depth log + amendment note suited to native-forb propagation
- Native seed/propagation plan naming the pollinator species to be grown out
- Scope: the site host's written scope for this nursery bed build, 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.
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
