Thanks to Alan and Laura for the title inspiration!
We had a lovely bunch this morning helping to get Greener And Cleaner's Community Garden set up. Laura arrived fresh from parkrun and David signed up last minute which was a nice surprise!
The garden is gradually taking shape and today we were tasked with the job of "laying the carpet" - removing weeds and putting down a load of woodchip by the shed.
Alan started off however by transferring a big container of water into the water butt using buckets before joining the rest of us troweling out weeds. Laura tuned into the sound of robin's - a nice accompaniment to our weeding.
Once that was done, we flattened it down - Alan had a neat Pac-Man style shuffle going on. Then we filled up wheelbarrows with woodchip and spread it over the now flatter patch of ground.
Great work, team! 💪
