Clean air and water for Brampton: restoring the Jacaranda hillside
Help us clean and replant the Jacaranda hillside before the November planting window closes.
🇨🇦 Canada1,430 views
The Jacaranda hillside has been used as an informal dump for years. This September, 63 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 54 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the municipal water board, including native species selected by a local botanist.
The area floods more each year, and fish have returned for the first time in a decade after our first cleanup. Restoring it will protect homes and bring back shade.
All the labor is volunteered. We just need materials.
Funds buy saplings, gloves, bags, hire of a skip, and signage.
Where the $1,100 goes:
• Signage and educational materials: $135
• Waste removal and skip hire: $410
• Native saplings and stakes: $555
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.

Keep going, Henri. This could happen to any of us. God bless
is there anything that isn't money that would help Henri?
Sharing the link is the biggest thing. And if you know anything about signage and educational materials, advice is welcome too. Happy to explain more.
wishing you the best. Looking forward to the next update. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Blessings.
Good luck, Henri. More neighborhoods should do this. Thinking of Brampton.
Your post was clear and honest. Sent it to 3 people at work. Love from Nsukka
So sorry you're going through this. Hope this works out for you. My brother had a similar thing happen so this one hit home.
