Report written by Paul Becker (he/him)

Share the love

No rain meant no sheltering in the poly tunnel at Sims Hill today; instead we were able to enjoy some very late summer sunshine out in the field weeding around the beetroot and leek crops.

Head farmer James explained that the weeds had got a little out of control and showed us to use hoes to uncover the paths running between crops and then pull out by hand any that had got in between them.

With several GoodGym members also being involved with Sims Hill we met up with a few friends so there ended up being a fairly size-able contingent of us today. Consequently we were able to clear a good space before lunchtime, when most of us headed off in our own separate ways.

Sims Hill host a monthly workday every third Sunday and welcome volunteers so do feel free to pop over one day - no doubt GoodGym will be back soon too.
