Freedom Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This May, 30 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 177 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 $200 goes: • Waste removal and skip hire: $110 • Signage and educational materials: $30 • Tools and protective gear: $60 If you can't give, please share this page. It does reach people.

  • Sending good thoughts, Camille. Hope you get there. Don't lose heart. A few weeks ago I was in a hole too and it changed faster than I expected.
