5 GoodGym runners braved the April blizzards to support the Scouts to get their allotment ready for re-opening in a few weeks.
Our tasks for the evening included filling the new raised beds with compost so that they are ready for planting, moving manure and laying wood chippings on the paths. Shovelling, raking and using the wheelbarrow certainly kept us warm!
We are a new scout group set up in Woodend, Coventry. In October 2019 we took on a very large allotment to give our young people to opportunity to grow their own food, learn about the environment and sustainability and to support our community with fresh fruit and vegetables. Unfortunately due to covid we have been unable to meet this spring and the Allotment has become very over grown.
