Clean water and shade for Nice: restoring Union Creek
Help us clean and replant Union Creek before the October planting window closes.
🇫🇷 Nice, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France652 views
Union Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This June, 99 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 98 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the city parks department, 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:
• Native saplings and stakes: $620
• Waste removal and skip hire: $290
• Tools and protective gear: $190
I hope life is good to you.

Hope it all works out, Zahra. Shared it with a few friends. Wish I lived closer to Marseille so I could bring a meal. God bless.
Everyone deserves a bit of help sometimes. My neighbor in San Diego donated after I showed her your page.
Keep going. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Love from Augsburg.
