Yard rescue for Hazel, 78: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Riverside: bring gloves and a rake.
🇺🇸 92500, Riverside, California, United States591 views
I'm 78 and I have lived in this house in Riverside for 20 years. After the storm in April, 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 ten 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.
Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
