Financial records start from April 2016

Donations were received from visitors to support the project and cover some of the accommodation and food cost.

We received a lot of computer equipment, office supplies, a fridge, kitchen utensils, plants, seedlings and seeds, food from supporters and visitors, hosepipes and connectors.

We have an arrangement with the property owners to cover the rent, heating, internet and telephone costs in return for property management services as there are no financial transactions for Kuckucksmühle in this regard this is omitted from the figures here quoted.

Maintenance costs included grouting material, rope, a repair kit for the greenhouse, a first aid kit for the car and window repairs.

Property maintenance costs which are not listed here are covered by the property owners. These included roof repairs, oven repairs and repairs to the pump.

The most effective enhancement cost for 2016 was the setting up of the greenhouse. We also added hosepipe and connectors to the equipment list making irrigation possible, bought a camera and an infrared camera.
