Plant 3,950 native trees around Liberty Beach in Jacksonville
A neighborhood-led restoration of Liberty Beach needs $1,950 for saplings and equipment.
🇺🇸 Jacksonville, Florida, United States2,036 views
Liberty Beach has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 112 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 60 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the municipal water board, 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 $1,950 goes:
• Signage and educational materials: $155
• Tools and protective gear: $370
• Native saplings and stakes: $1,425
With deep gratitude,
Lincoln

Hope things get better soon, Lincoln. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. I went through something like this 13 years ago and strangers helped me out.
Rooting for you, Lincoln. More neighborhoods should do this. We had a similar scare last year, I know what it feels like. Love from Jaipur
