Clear storm damage from Heather's garden in Atlanta

Garden rescue day in Atlanta: bring gloves and a rake.

Atlanta
I'm 90 and I have lived in this house in Atlanta for 43 years. After the storm in June, 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 my hip replacement. The council has told me it will be eight weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner. Help needed: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do. Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

    So sorry you're going through this, Heather. This could happen to any of us. I went through something like this 5 years ago and strangers helped me out. God bless

      You're not alone, Heather. I hope things turn around soon. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Greetings from Mysuru.
