Education and training in gardening as well as personal and community food production. The expansion of our gardening operation by creating a YouthCan garden devoted to engaging more youth in growing vegetables for their families and community. The focus of the YouthCan garden is "Economic Compassion". Here we education youth and adults in the practice of not only selling some of their vegetables but also in donating to those in need. The garden for youth is actually an outdoor classroom complete with education and training in composting, seed harvesting and planting, and skills to grow an abundance of vegetables. Construction of the twelve raised bed garden included filling each with rich soil and a compost system, served to recruit more youth. The garden area of the farm was also expanded to include a hügelkultur garden which is a no-till garden. Here we focused on planting vining plants such as watermelons. In addition we planted additional fruit trees and berry bushes. Youth and adults were engaged in planting pollinators in the garden area as well as throughout the farm.
Expenses $18,000 · Grants $14,000 · Revenue $4,000
-
UCAN continues to invest in the building of its infrastructure. Since we are reclaiming and old neglected farmstead that has not been tended in over seventy years, we must ensure that all structures utilized in providing services to the community are safe and sound. Our focus in this area included the digging of an additional well, removal of unsafe structures and construction of a walking trail as well as maintenance of our existing trading path. We acknowledge that there is more to health and wellbeing than have access to fresh nutritious vegetables. Access to open green spaces are just as important.
Expenses $8,500 · Grants $5,000 · Revenue $3,500
-
With an increase in services comes the need for an increase in contracting with or engaging with those local individuals with the skills and knowledge to teach. Since UCAN lacks the unrestricted funds to hire staff we entered into agreements with other organizations and individuals with expertise in various areas to instruct our youth and adults in trail building, dismantling of unsafe structures, building and other related skills. In addition with a focus on climate change and conservation we seek those with comparable skills.
Expenses $5,416 · Grants $3,500 · Revenue $1,916

Compensation is as filed in Part VII: reportable pay from this organization and from related organizations, other compensation, and hours per week. The total, marked calculated, is our sum of the three dollar columns, with a blank column counted as $0; the form itself has no total. On a Form 990-EZ the columns are Part IV's instead, and on a Form 990-PF Part VIII's — compensation, contributions to benefit plans, and expense account — and the total sums those. A Schedule J breakdown is as filed: base pay, bonus, other, deferred compensation and nontaxable benefits from this organization, with any from related organizations beside each, and the filer's own total. It is shown with the Part VII listing of the same name on the same return. The form gives no key between the two, so that pairing is ours, and is marked matched by us.

The filer's explanations (Part III)
- Schedule J, Part I, Line 3
- As a small nonprofit with limited resources the salary for the Executive was based on financial abilities, acceptable pay of the candidate and local practices. The Board of Director approved the pay that was agreed upon by the candidate. The organization realizes that the pay provided is not within the norm that is provided to local nonprofit Executives Directors. Note that the Executive Director is a co-founder of the organization and until the point in time in which a salary was provided, worked pro-bono.
