Volunteers wanted: Mazen's yard after the storm
Garden rescue day in Marseille: bring gloves and a rake.
🇫🇷 Marseille, Provence-Alpes-Côte d'Azur, France415 views
I'm 79 and I have lived in this house in Marseille for 38 years. After the storm in August, two large branches and a fallen fence have blocked the back door and the garden path. I can no longer manage them myself because of poor eyesight.
The council has told me it will be eight weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: someone with a chainsaw, plus a few people with rakes and gloves. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Even a small gift gets used right away and I'll thank you myself.

Perfect example of someone making a real difference. They took time out of their busy schedule to help me and never made me feel like a burden.
