For five years the neighborhood has asked for a sensory garden for children with autism. This year a group of 30 volunteers, including two retired carpenters, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Cedar vacant lot, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $550. It will serve about 247 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 $550 goes: • Materials: $410 • Permits and inspections: $25 • Safety equipment and signage: $35 • Tools hire and delivery: $80 Glad we found this place. - Zahid

      • Great idea, hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected. God bless.
