Plant 1,250 native trees around Jacaranda Creek in Bang Khen
Volunteers are restoring Jacaranda Creek in Bang Khen; $600 covers saplings, tools and waste removal.
🇹🇭 Bang Khen, Bangkok, Thailand917 views
Jacaranda Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This May, 119 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 178 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the local forestry office, 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 $600 goes:
• Tools and protective gear: $100
• Native saplings and stakes: $360
• Waste removal and skip hire: $140
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.

Thinking of you, Udom. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. All the best.
Rooting for you. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I went through something like this 11 years ago and strangers helped me out. Blessings.
Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Udom.
Everything on the list is an amount I've been quoted or invoiced. tools and protective gear comes first ($100) and I'll update the page as each thing gets paid. Ask me anything else.
Thanks for sharing this, Udom. Shared this with my family.
shared it with a few friends. We're a small family in Negombo but we're thinking of you. God bless.
