Running from Camberwell Arts Festival setup, Sam met Kaz, Simon and then eventually Lucie.
Our first task was to move / shift soil from a tonne bag that was delivered just on Denmark Road into the Walled Garden. We had an efficient system of shoveling soil into the wheelbarrows whilst one person made the run into the Walled Garden to drop it a half empty bag of soil. Once the bag of soil outside was light enough to be moved, we all lifted it up into a wheelbarrow to transport it into the Walled Garden.
Our second task was to move wooden planks from by the pallets to the backside of the Walled Garden, but in order to do this we needed to shift and sort other random bits and bobs already at the back.
Our final task, Kaz and Sam used a hammer to smash up nails on a pallet that was to be discarded to ensure it wasn't a health and safety risk.
All in all, quite a productive session for the three GoodGymers and Simon!
