Muckin’ about in the mud
3 GoodGymers made their way to help the Kings Path WIldflower meadow in York.

Three hardy GG Yorkies braved the murky and drizzly weather to meet Gordon, along with another volunteer, back at the Kings Meadow. This was our last chance to dig out those pesky docks as the wildflower 🌸seeds were ready to be planted.
We dug the docks for almost an hour, gathering huge clods of mud on our boots 🥾in the process. Some of the most innocent looking leaves on the surface had the thickest and longest roots!
We then began to sow the wildflower seeds, each taking sections (3 fence panels wide) and scattering the seeds, trying to make sure we didn't run out before we got across the whole section. The wind may have meant that some seeds were stuck to our boots 🥾too! We hope to see a lovely display of wildflowers next year.
