This land will either be
developed or preserved.
We can save it if we act now.
We're building a public food forest and community park on 19+ acres in East Lake. Two acres are already secured. The remaining 17 are at risk. Pledge now. No money moves until the land is ours.

Make a Pledge
If these acres sell to a developer, that's the end of this. No second chances, no adjacent site. Pledge now, and be part of what makes it possible.
This is a commitment, not a charge.
Your pledge will fund Phase 2 once the land is secured.
Here’s what’s at stake
If this land sells to a developer, that's it.
East Lake is changing fast. The 17 acres adjacent to the 2 we already hold are not on the market yet, but they will be if we can’t get the funding. Once they're gone, they're gone. There's no path to acquiring them later at a price that makes sense, and no realistic alternative site that gives us what this one does.
This is a rare alignment of a willing seller, usable land, and a community ready to show up. We've already done the hard work of securing the first 2 acres. What we need now is proof that people will fund the next phase once we cross the finish line on the land.
That's exactly what your pledge does.
You commit now. Nothing moves until the land is ours.
Why we need your pledge now
This only works if people say yes right now.
Most people wait until a project is done to support it. That's exactly when support matters least. What we need is people willing to say: if you get this land, I'm in for the next part.
That's not a risk. Your money doesn't move until we've closed on the property. But the signal you send now is real. A wall of pledges tells landowners, partners, and funders that this community is serious and this project has legs.
We're not asking you to believe in an idea.
The first 2 acres are already secured. This is already happening. The question is whether we can get the rest of the land before someone else does.
Here’s how this works
What happens after you pledge
01
You make a commitment today
Just add your name and the amount you're willing to contribute when it's time.
02
We secure the land
Once we reach the $200k needed to close on the remaining 17 acres, we move. That's the only trigger.
03
We come back to you
When the land is secured, pledgers are the first to know. That's when funding for Phase 2 opens.
04
We build the park
$500k funds the infrastructure, plantings, and public access systems that turn 19 acres into a working food forest and community park.
The window to do this is open.
It won't stay that way for long.
If the 17 acres sell to a developer, that's the end of this. No second chances, no adjacent site. Pledge now, and be part of what makes it possible.
