This week we welcomed Yasin to the team as we made our way to the Penrose roots to recovery garden.

There were signs of crops popping up in the various plots with parsnips, garlic and lettuces already well on their way. The potatoes we dug trenches for in the spring were also doing well.

Weeding the plots was our task for the evening, hoeing in between the potatoes and digging over the end of another plot where things are yet to be planted.

With a good number of us we made good progress and many barrows of weeds ended up on the compost pile.

Walkers set off while the runners headed to Wardown park for a quick and gentle workout on our cores, it was too hot for anything more strenuous!
