A day in the garden: help Andrea in Iztapalapa
Garden rescue day in Iztapalapa: bring gloves and a rake.
🇲🇽 Iztapalapa, Ciudad de México, Mexico424 views
I'm 74 and I have lived in this house in Iztapalapa for 44 years. After the storm in July, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of a recent fall.
The council has told me it will be twelve weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Thanks for being kind about this.
