It was a filthy day as Good Gym returned to Hervey road. Two runners having been blown all over the place at parkrun were undeterred in their desire to help at this lovely little green space. We were soon met by Annie, our lovely task leader for the day, and put to work. And the day’s task was planting grass seeded with wildflowers, taking the plugs of grass and planting them within the existing grassy areas. 40 plugs needed to be planted and 40 plugs were planted before the wind blew us all back to Charlton.
