Any Garden Steward or Volunteer wishing to purchase goods or services for the garden must follow the procedure below per the policy approved by the WBG Board of Directors:
- Complete the online form below for fastest response. All fields are required. (Click here for a PDF form for off-line submission.)
- Whenever possible, use one of the Garden’s approved vendors.
- Submit the form for review by the WBG Treasurer, who will determine if the requested purchase is within budget and otherwise appropriate. If both criteria are met, the purchase will be approved and arrangements will be made to make the purchase with Garden funds. If both criteria are not met, the reviewing Board member may deny the request, modify and approve the request, ask for more information, or submit the request to the entire Board. The Treasurer and Board will act on all purchase requests as quickly as possible.
- Approved purchases for the Garden must be made with the Garden’s funds (i.e., check or debit card) in order to qualify for tax-exemption. Any purchase made with personal funds will not qualify as tax-exempt.
