Restoring the Harmony hillside: a volunteer-led project in Hubballi
Help us clean and replant the Harmony hillside before the December planting window closes.
Anywhere in the world1,231 views
The Harmony hillside has been used as an informal dump for years. This July, 60 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 123 bags in a single morning. Now we want to restore it for good.
We have a plan agreed with the municipal water board, 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 $400 goes:
• Native saplings and stakes: $125
• Tools and protective gear: $110
• Waste removal and skip hire: $130
• Signage and educational materials: $35
Thanks for reading all this.

Wishing you the best, Subramanian. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. My husband and I read this together!
