Two Croydon Goodgymers Nicola and Ian, visited St Augustine’s Church during Volunteers’ Week to help with their community garden. Sue, our usual contact at the church, wanted assistance in digging up a large phormium plant and splitting it into parts which were to be distributed among the community. This was not straightforward as leaves were sharp and we had to do lots of digging and add water to soften the soil around deep seated roots. Sue enlisted another helper and we all wrenched the plant from the ground leaving a deep muddy hole which Sue sunk her foot into up to her knee! All was well and we then refilled the hole with a different plant. We ended with a good catch up chat and Sue was very pleased.
