Baobab Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This July, 64 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 49 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. Funds buy saplings, gloves, bags, hire of a skip, and signage. Where the $800 goes: • Native saplings and stakes: $350 • Tools and protective gear: $150 • Waste removal and skip hire: $240 • Signage and educational materials: $60 I hope life is good to you.

  • Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Wanida

    • Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. native saplings and stakes comes first ($350) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid.

  • good luck. Shared it with a few friends. This is the second need I've supported on here and the first that made me cry. God bless

      Sending love, Wanida. This could happen to any of us. I have a 8 year old who wants to send good wishes too.

      • So sorry you're going through this. I hope things turn around soon. I'm in engineering myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you. Thinking of Nakhon Ratchasima.
