The Baobab riverbank has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 79 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 73 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.
We'll post planting day photos and a count of every sapling planted.
Where the $1,350 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $570
• Tools and protective gear: $450
• Waste removal and skip hire: $250
• Signage and educational materials: $80
I hope life is good to you.

Hope it all works out, Beau. It takes guts to ask. Well done. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like
Stay strong, Beau. More neighborhoods should do this. Put this on a community board in Timișoara this morning
