Plant 2,050 native trees around Jacaranda Beach in Newcastle upon Tyne
Volunteers are restoring Jacaranda Beach in Newcastle upon Tyne; $1,250 covers saplings, tools and waste removal.
🇬🇧 Newcastle upon Tyne, England, United Kingdom823 views
Jacaranda Beach has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 87 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 58 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 $1,250 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $460
• Tools and protective gear: $340
• Waste removal and skip hire: $280
• Signage and educational materials: $170
I'll pay this kindness forward the moment I'm able to.
