In this episode of City Harvest, Madhan had to deal with pears, peaches, and people. The task was to fill the crates with half pears and half peaches. But the tricky part is scanning through the pile of pears and picking only the pairs that can be edible. A lot of spoiled, squished, and moldy pears were in the pile. So Madhan teamed up with Bea, another volunteer, and carefully picked the good ones in a bucket and filled the crates. As the pile was nearing the end, Madhan's back sent a WhatsApp message saying that it quits. Bea pointed to the chairs nearby which made the remaining picking process smoother. Peaches on the other hand came in packs of 5. He had to unwrap the peaches, check if they are moldy/spoiled, and threw them into another crate if so. After filling 80+ crates along with 4 other people, the warehouse manager said it was time to wrap things up.

Madhan talked about GoodGym to the fellow volunteers and most likely we would get another GoodGymer arising from Acton soon.
