Join us at a Garden Pool Meetup member's private residence for our latest design and volunteer project, a GP System build!
We are looking for volunteers to help a GP Volunteer build their own system so they can grow food the GP way.
This pond-based GP System was custom designed by Dennis just for the Flower of Life Garden Pool at the Hadley Residence. It is at a private residence of a GP Volunteer located in Tempe and will include:
* Self-Sustaining Tilapia Pond & Cistern
* Water Catchment System
* Aquaponic Greenhouse
* Completely Organic (No GMOs, pesticides, chemicals, etc.)
* Use 98% less water than conventional farming methods (water is stored & recycled)
Materials for the project will be provided.
We will be building this ambitious project and we could really use your help!
We could use plenty of volunteers to help build and we can never have too many tools.
Tools are needed for volunteers:
Writing Utensils (Sharpies, pens,& pencils)
Tape Measures
Cordless or Corded Drills
Deckmate Phillips Driver Bits and 1/8" Wood Drill Bits.
Reciprocating Saws
Jackhammers, Rotary Hammer Drills & Augers
Circular Saws or Power Miter Saws.
Sawhorses
Staple Guns (3/8" T50 Staples)
Extension Cords
Hole Saw & Drill Bits
Levels, Speed Squares, Combination Squares, etc.
Ladders & Stools
Scissors & Tin Snips
PVC Tools
Utility Knives & Exacto Knives
Shovels
Wheelbarrows
Gloves (Gardening & Nitryl/Vinyl)
Hammers
Snacks, lunch, water & restrooms will be provided for all GP volunteers.
You don't have to bring tools or donate any materials, but we can always use plenty of hands. We greatly appreciate your time and we look forward to seeing the GP Team regulars and new faces at our next exciting volunteer project, a new Garden Pool build! RSVP's are limited so please only RSVP if you are definitely going to attend.
