Sycamore Creek cleanup and restoration: help our volunteer crew
Volunteers are restoring Sycamore Creek in Lucknow; $250 covers saplings, tools and waste removal.
🇮🇳 Lucknow, Uttar Pradesh, IndiaPosted Oct 1, 2026648 views
Sycamore Creek has been used as an informal dump for years. This August, 38 neighbors turned up for a first cleanup, filling 71 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.
Funds buy saplings, gloves, bags, hire of a skip, and signage.
Where the $250 goes:
• Signage and educational materials: $30
• Waste removal and skip hire: $120
• Native saplings and stakes: $100
Thank you so much.

Is there a list of costs somewhere? Just curious how it adds up for Gopal.
Wishing you peace, Gopal. More neighborhoods should do this. Take care
so sorry you're going through this, Gopal. Hope the build day goes well, wish I lived closer. We're a small family in Gujranwala but we're thinking of you.
