Material List

If you’d prefer to support New Foundation Farms by donating materials instead of cash, we’ve created a running list of what we currently need. This list is updated regularly as donations come in and funds are allocated, so you’ll always know which items are still outstanding. Once materials are donated, we’ll mark them off the list. Every in-kind donation is just as valuable as a financial gift, and we’ll provide you with a tax-deductible receipt describing your contribution.

​

Below is a breakdown of the materials needed to build our 30×100 ft greenhouse. Most items are everyday supplies (wood, plastic, concrete, etc.) that can often be donated locally. A smaller number of specialized components (highlighted as specialized items) will likely need to be purchased with donated funds.

Every contribution — whether cash, materials, or volunteer labor — brings us closer to completing Phase One of this project.
