Neighbors Threatened to Call the City on Elderly Couple for Overgrown Yard

  • In the aftermath of the 2020 deadly tornado that struck Chattanooga, Tennessee, many neighborhoods were left with extensive damage and debris. One couple, elderly and struggling to keep up with the maintenance of their property, found themselves in the midst of this chaos. Not only did they lose several mature oak trees and a vehicle, but they were also without power for days due to the destruction of power lines in the area.
    The couple's house, located in the back of the neighborhood, was one of the last to have trees cleaned up, and in the meantime, a great deal of underbrush took over their backyard. To make matters worse, their lawn had not been mowed in over two years, leaving it overgrown and unkempt.
    As I was out mowing another overgrown lawn in the neighborhood, I couldn't help but notice the state of the elderly couple's property. I felt a sense of compassion and desire to help, and so I knocked on their door and offered to mow their lawn for free. They were grateful for the kind gesture and I was happy to be able to make a small difference in their lives. I hope you enjoy the video of my efforts to help out in the community and bring a little bit of beauty back to this couple's yard.

    I think this was the most incredible transformation on TH-cam. You didn't just cut the grass and take care of the bushes and trees, you made it look like a Home once more. When you planted the flowers, I cried. This was more than a clean up. I'm an old lady who can barely take care of anything, anymore, and this video touched my heart. I hope the homeowners enjoy their new yard. It looks awesome!

      It's not the neighbors responsibility to do anything. Times are tough for everyone. The homeowner needs to take care of their property in one of two ways. Either do it yourself or pay a landscaper to keep up with maintenance. The same goes for the interior. Its not sanitary to not repair broken things.

    As a 70+ year old woman who at one time spent a lot of time outside doing yard work and for the last 12 to 15 years have been disabled can greatly appreciate what you have done. To me people like you are right up there by people who help neglected and abandoned animals. You are amazing. I too would like to thank you for doing their yard. And I truly hope that IF YOU EVER FINE YOURSELF in a spot that you need help, there will be many who will be there to lend a hand.

      I too am 70 , and a keen gardener , but have started to get arthritis in my feet and my energy levels have dropped right down. I still do my gardening, but it takes so much longer to get things done now, the garden can soon run away from you . Sometimes you just need a hand to get on top of things, as it gives you new vigour and spurs you on , they say ," a garden is a thing of beauty, and a job forever " This guy is making those neighbours look sad , pathetic and uncaring. !

      Much of the damage path of that 2020 twister was in some upscale neighborhoods.

    Alex, your transformation of that elderly couple’s property was EPIC! The backyard looked like some film company could have filmed a jungle adventure movie and not have to go on location in Asia or Africa. What was really sad was that those neighbors never offered to help out the couple. The neighbors got lazy-minded and decided it was easier to call city hall and threaten the couple. I wouldn’t want to live in a neighborhood like that, not with vicious attitudes like that.

There are some that do it for monetary purposes and I don't give those people my time or support. You, however did so much for this couple and I thank you. This is an incredible transformation!

      I hear you! And if you get in to a smaller place with no yard work, just imagine all the other fun things you can do instead.
      When we redid our yard, we put down anti-weed sheeting, took out all the grass and put in gravel. It was a life saver. We are over 76!

I have watched a couple of other guys that go and mow etc for free, but I've never seen any go to the lengths this young man went to. I'm a disability pensioner in my mid 60's, and I haven't been able to do my yard, and it just cost me $170.00 per hour to have mine done. I don't live in the USA.

    One of the first and best things was your belief in going like you want it to be. I so agree. And I am dearly hoping people see what you have accomplished and realize they can do things to help others also. This was one of the most massive projects I have ever seen. I really liked that what you have left with the plants and mulching makes it look so beautiful and finished. The homeowners, I really hope, were thrilled and spend a lot of time just admiring every day what you have given them. It is a shame so many people just stay to themselves instead of reaching out to become friends with their neighbors. I hope this is something the whole street admires and feels as good as it makes me feel. Horrendous job and thank goodness you had someone to give you a hand. Wow! Amazing!
