Yard rescue for Delilah, 80: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in San Jose: bring gloves and a rake.
🇺🇸 San Jose, California, United States426 views
I'm 80 and I have lived in this house in San Jose for 35 years. After the storm in July, 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 twelve 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.

Wishing you the best, Delilah. I've been in a tough spot myself and it does get easier. My neighbor in Bahir Dar donated after I showed her your page. God bless
Rooting for you, Delilah. I hope things turn around soon. Put this on a community board in Brooklyn this morning
