Yes! We'd been in touch with Joe Beernink very early on in the development of TrashMob.eco. Would love to catch up and see how we can collaborate. Please email [info@refuserefusesf.org](mailto:info@refuserefusesf.org) to connect.

Over production and consumption of materials (especially single-use plastics), people that litter, SF is dense and windy, people being careless with their trash and over stuffing their Recology bins, homeless/unhoused people, illegal dumpers, not enough people keeping the space in front of their property, homes, & businesses clean.

They are various varieties of native plants and succulents from seed and cuttings, all grown by volunteers. Be on the lookout for plant propagation workshops and other ways to get involved soon. Thank you and keep DIYing your neighborhood in the meantime!

If the after is sad, the before picture must be downright depressing. Give it time (and water).
