We had a lovely dry start to our evening's Group Session. Unfortunately it didn't last... but no matter! We got a good deed done and a solid chunk of exercise in. πͺ
5 of us met at the Bridge House including brand new to GoodGym... Gabriela!! Lovely to have you join us :) We ran through our names and favourite dance moves (in preparation for a potential raindance...), did a quick warm up and then headed down to Cator, with a cheeky wallsit (plus Macarena) on the way.
We met up with 3 more GoodGymers (Ria, Hannah and Linda) and Gill, Lou and Millie, the fab three from the Friends of Cator Park who were already getting stuck into various tasks.
Today's main aim was to pull up weeds and stop them coming back.
π± Hannah, Ria and Linda were working on one of the beds, removing grass and weeds so new shrubs can be planted.
π Stephen, Gabriela, Catherine and Clare were on mulch duty, filling up a couple of wheelbarrows and emptying them around the young trees and holly saplings we planted a few weeks ago. This stops the weeds growing and taking all the nutrients before the trees get a chance to suck it up.
We were treated to a few bursts of rain shower before being thoroughly drenched when we left.
Nice one all you amazing people.
