Yard rescue for Andrea, 85: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Andrea's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.
🇦🇷 Mendoza, Mendoza, Argentina841 views
I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Mendoza for 31 years. After the storm in February, 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 my hip replacement.
The council has told me it will be six weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: two people with loppers and a wheelbarrow. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Glad we found this place.
