On a day of torrential rain in Hackney, Goodgym set out to give the plants at Hackney Downs station a drop of water. Despite Clair’s epic fail to get the knapsack sprayer to work, and the sarky comments of passengers “I think they’ve had enough water today” we soldiered on and watered our way across the 3 platforms. Welcome to newbies Laura and Stephanie, hope to see you again soon.

Hackney Downs has 20 planters that need regular watering. Raised above the city on 4 concrete platforms, we are growing edibles, herbs and perennial flowers to provide forage for bees and beauty for the commuters.
