Plant 4,950 native trees around the Sycamore riverbank in Aurora
Volunteers are restoring the Sycamore riverbank in Aurora; $2,850 covers saplings, tools and waste removal.
🇺🇸 Aurora, Colorado, United States1,881 views
The Sycamore riverbank has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 34 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 184 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 $2,850 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $1,650
• Tools and protective gear: $410
• Waste removal and skip hire: $600
• Signage and educational materials: $190
I hope life is good to you.

Hope things get better soon, Reagan. I hope things turn around soon. Don't give up. Love from Faisalabad
So sorry you're going through this, Reagan. Shared it with a few friends. My late mom used to say help given quietly counts double. God bless.
Good luck, Reagan. Great idea, hope you get there. I have a 10 year old who wants to send good wishes too!
