Let's build a community garden together in Metz

For ten years the neighborhood has asked for a community garden. This year a group of 13 volunteers, including a group of teenagers, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for Baobab Primary School, but no funding. We have received donated volunteer hours worth about $580, and the remaining cost is $3,800. It will serve about 238 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in October 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 $3,800 goes: • Materials: $3,050 • Permits and inspections: $210 • Safety equipment and signage: $300 • Tools hire and delivery: $240 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Juliette
