Plant 817 native trees around Jacaranda Beach in Nashik
A neighborhood-led restoration of Jacaranda Beach needs $400 for saplings and equipment.
🇮🇳 Maharashtra, India472 views
Jacaranda Beach has been used as an informal dump for years. This July, 74 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 133 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.
Funds buy saplings, gloves, bags, hire of a skip, and signage.
Where the $400 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $220
• Tools and protective gear: $90
• Waste removal and skip hire: $60
• Signage and educational materials: $30
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
