Plant 1,600 native trees around Sycamore Creek in Södertälje
Volunteers are restoring Sycamore Creek in Södertälje; $2,100 covers saplings, tools and waste removal.
🇸🇪 Södertälje, Stockholm, Sweden2,581 views
Sycamore Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 115 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 133 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 $2,100 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $1,400
• Tools and protective gear: $210
• Waste removal and skip hire: $490
