Let's build a community garden together in Granada

Volunteers in Granada are raising $1,400 for a community garden at Unity Primary School.

Granada
For eight 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 Unity Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated paint, and the remaining cost is $1,400. It will serve about 266 people, including young people who have nowhere safe to play. We'll hold a build day in May 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 $1,400 goes: • Tools hire and delivery: $140 • Permits and inspections: $185 • Materials: $1,075 If you're reading this, thank you.
