Let's build a community garden together in Makati

For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 30 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Freedom Park, but no funding. We have received donated timber, and the remaining cost is $500. It will serve about 224 people, including school children and their families. 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. All purchases will be made by two volunteers and logged publicly. Surplus funds will go to maintenance. Where the $500 goes: • Materials: $360 • Permits and inspections: $35 • Safety equipment and signage: $60 • Tools hire and delivery: $45 Glad we found this place. - Patricia
