Let's build a community garden together in Amsterdam

For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 21 volunteers, including a retired civil engineer, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the old Sycamore bus depot, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $650. It will serve about 112 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in August 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 $650 goes: • Permits and inspections: $120 • Safety equipment and signage: $145 • Tools hire and delivery: $385 If you're reading this, thank you. - Tim
