The Harmony riverbank has been used as an informal dump for years. This February, 81 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 145 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: • Native saplings and stakes: $230 • Signage and educational materials: $40 • Waste removal and skip hire: $130 Glad we found this place. - Parvati

    So sorry you're going through this, Parvati. It takes guts to ask. Well done. I told my book club about it and three of them are giving too. All the best

    • Sending love. Reading this made my day a bit heavier but I'm glad I did. After 19 years in hospitality I know how hard it's to ask for anything. All the best
