Yard rescue for Tsion, 76: fallen trees and overgrown beds
Garden rescue day in Jimma: bring gloves and a rake.
🇪🇹 Jimma, Oromia, Ethiopia1,078 views
I'm 76 and I have lived in this house in Jimma for 29 years. After the storm in November, 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 eight weeks before they can send someone. I'd feel much safer if it were cleared sooner.
Help needed: a small team to cut, stack and carry away branches. I'll provide tea, sandwiches and the green waste bags. A few hours will do.
Please ask me anything in the questions section. I'll answer honestly and quickly.
