For five years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 13 volunteers, including local mothers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Union Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated a pump, and the remaining cost is $550. It will serve about 294 people, including elderly neighbors living alone. We'll hold a build day in November 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. Funds are spent only on materials, permits and safety equipment; all labor is volunteered. Where the $550 goes: • Materials: $360 • Permits and inspections: $60 • Safety equipment and signage: $65 • Tools hire and delivery: $65 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.

  • you're not alone, Alka. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like.
