My builder uses Houzz Pro to plan the timeline and give detailed estimates and daily updates with photos of progress, and provide invoices at pre-agreed key points in the build. This made the whole experience much more efficient and stress-free.

5 years ago

Hey Im 19 and starting a garden in my community to help feed my neighborhood. I was wondering if anyone could donate free seeds! Thanks

    Where is the garden located (climate?) and what kind of produce would you like to grow?

    You may want to post this in The Seed Exchange topic, https://www.houzz.com/discussions/the-seed-exchange .

    The garden is In New Orleans/Hardiness Zome 9A). I would like to grow vegtables and fruits suited to our warm climate and grains.

    Jerome, there are seed libraries in New Orleans offering free seeds to community gardens. Check out "Go Green NOLA."

    Have you been in touch with your local agricultural extension service? This is a very ambitious project and the fact that you are making this appeal here makes me think you may need more hands-on help to get this going. Sorry if I got the wrong impression :)
