Yard rescue for Rodrigo, 74: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Palmira: bring gloves and a rake.
🇨🇴 763577, Palmira, Valle del Cauca, Colombia263 views
I'm 74 and I have lived in this house in Palmira for 48 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 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.
