Plant 3,750 native trees around the Unity hillside in Pattaya
Help us clean and replant the Unity hillside before the November planting window closes.
🇹🇭 Thailand657 views
The Unity hillside has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 120 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 185 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 $400 goes:
• Tools and protective gear: $80
• Native saplings and stakes: $230
• Waste removal and skip hire: $90
You're what makes this possible, and I'll never forget it.

Your post was clear and honest. Our whole street has been following this since the weekend. Greetings from Fresno
is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Lalita
The list at the bottom is the whole picture. tools and protective gear is the biggest at $80. Happy to explain more.
Thanks for sharing this, Lalita. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. All the best.
Hope things get better soon, Lalita. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. We're a small family in Jakarta but we're thinking of you. Thinking of Pattaya.
sending love, Lalita. This could happen to any of us. I'm in accounting myself and wanted you to know we're cheering for you.
is there anything that isn't money that would help Lalita?
Thank you. If you're in Pattaya I'll say if something practical comes up. For now sharing this is great. Ask me anything else.
thinking of you and your family. More neighborhoods should do this. Don't be hard on yourself for asking.
Thinking of you, Lalita. This could happen to any of us. I hope November is when things finally get easier. Take care
Hope things get better soon. Shared it with a few friends. I'll check back for the next update. Blessings.
Keep going, Lalita. Great idea, hope you get there. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. Take care.
so sorry you're going through this. Great idea, hope you get there. Read this on the bus and kept thinking about it all day. Greetings from Aurora
