Yard rescue for Mariana, 85: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Buenos Aires: bring gloves and a rake.
🇦🇷 1007, Buenos Aires, Buenos Aires, Argentina307 views
I'm 85 and I have lived in this house in Buenos Aires for 27 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 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: 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.
Thanks for being kind about this.

Best of luck, Mariana. Your post was clear and honest. Blessings
Gave what I could, wish it was more. My daughter saw me on my phone and now she wants to give her pocket money. Greetings from Wudil.
