Restoring Cedar Beach: a volunteer-led project in Osaka
Help us clean and replant Cedar Beach before the August planting window closes.
🇯🇵 Osaka, Japan717 views
Cedar Beach has been used as an informal dump for years. This June, 59 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 103 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the city parks department, 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 $700 goes:
• Waste removal and skip hire: $250
• Signage and educational materials: $120
• Tools and protective gear: $330
Thank you for reading my story.
