Restoring Liberty Creek: a volunteer-led project in Haifa
Help us clean and replant Liberty Creek before the October planting window closes.
🇮🇱 Haifa, Israel1,022 views
Liberty Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This July, 73 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 170 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 $1,450 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $900
• Tools and protective gear: $195
• Waste removal and skip hire: $230
• Signage and educational materials: $125
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.
