Clear storm damage from Julia's garden in Scranton
Garden rescue day in Scranton: bring gloves and a rake.

I'm 79 and I have lived in this house in Scranton for 48 years. After the storm in August, 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 a heart condition.
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.
Glad we found this place.
