The Maple vacant lot needs a covered market stall space - Lillian's neighborhood project

Volunteers in Fayetteville are raising $2,100 for a covered market stall space at the Maple vacant lot.

For twelve years the neighborhood has asked for a covered market stall space. This year a group of 21 volunteers, including the parish youth group, decided to stop waiting. The council has given permission for the Maple vacant lot, but no funding. We have received donated soil and plants, and the remaining cost is $2,100. It will serve about 433 people, including children, seniors and people with disabilities. We'll hold a build day in December 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 $2,100 goes: • Materials: $1,650 • Permits and inspections: $135 • Tools hire and delivery: $315 I'll keep this page updated with receipts as things happen. - Lillian
