Plant 995 native trees around the Harmony wetland in Bangkok
A neighborhood-led restoration of the Harmony wetland needs $600 for saplings and equipment.
🇹🇭 Bangkok, Bangkok, Thailand1,103 views
The Harmony wetland has been used as an informal dump for years. This March, 97 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 196 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 $600 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $470
• Signage and educational materials: $30
• Waste removal and skip hire: $100
