Plant 2,600 native trees around Freedom Creek in Seoul
A neighborhood-led restoration of Freedom Creek needs $600 for saplings and equipment.
🇰🇷 Seoul, South Korea912 views
Freedom Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This March, 57 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 63 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the district council, 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 $600 goes:
• Signage and educational materials: $175
• Tools and protective gear: $120
• Waste removal and skip hire: $305
Ask me anything below before you decide. I'd rather you were sure.
