Mandeville
For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 15 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Acacia community hall, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $500. It will serve about 300 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in July and everyone is invited. We're a small team, and every dollar will be spent in the open - I'll post receipts and progress photos. All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance. Where the $500 goes: โ€ข Tools hire and delivery: $45 โ€ข Materials: $430 โ€ข Safety equipment and signage: $25 Thank you so much. - Rohan
