We had a lovely little gang this morning for a couple of tasks at the delightfully lush Ruskin Park Community Garden.
Top of the agenda was digging out the good stuff from the bottom of the compost heap. We then had to sift it in order to get rid of some of the twigs. Justin had a few little sieves but as pretty experienced sievers, we suggested a shopping, which they did actually have!
So we filled up the wheel barrows, emptied it into the trolley and shook it to let the good stuff into a sack underneath. The twigs went back onto the pile to decompose for longer.
Zara also did some chopping back of the wilder bit of the garden which was enveloping a nice circle of log seats.
After a warm hour of working we called it a day and the Justin and Sadie kindly gave us all some spinach to take home! Sam and Esse were off to the Windmill for their second of three missions for the day(!) and Zara and I headed home.
