Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Emma Presley Abbott
We turned up at Ms V’s expecting a relatively quick task, as she just needed help weeding her plant pots. Little did we know there would be approximately 1,000 of them!
Ms V talked us through what needed doing, and we soon got to work weeding, deadheading marigolds, rearranging pots, sweeping, and clearing up a mountain of dead twigs. We learned a lot from Ms V who loves her garden and is very knowledgeable.
Even working as quickly as we could, a supposedly easy task soon turned into a marathon 3 hour gardening session, but we had a lovely time chatting away to Ms V and the time flew by.
