Yard rescue for Jia, 92: fallen trees and overgrown beds

Fallen branches and overgrowth are blocking Jia's path; a few hours of help would make a big difference.

I'm 92 and I have lived in this house in Québec for 20 years. After the storm in December, 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 a recent fall. 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. Whatever you can give, even just sharing this page, means a lot.
