Clean air and water for Córdoba: restoring the Union hillside

The Union hillside has been used as an informal dump for years. This May, 115 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 55 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good. We have a plan agreed with the district council, 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. We'll post planting day photos and a count of every sapling planted. Where the $1,350 goes: • Native saplings and stakes: $690 • Tools and protective gear: $320 • Waste removal and skip hire: $280 • Signage and educational materials: $60 I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
