IT RAINED!!!

Despite the rain we persevered, having arrived at the meeting point already wet theres know where to go from there so decided to get stuck in and do the best we could. We we're actually surprised at how quickly the session went!

First we started filling the raised planters outside the nursery, the beds had be relocated from the food growing space that we help revamp earlier this year. The TRA will then plant them up.

The compost also came from the Frieze Art Fair which we helped bag up a few weeks ago with a community mission in Regent's Park. The compost we didn't use we moved it so local residents can easily use it to mulch one of the beds they look after. We also had an encounter with a dead mouse!

To finish off we made very quick work of clearing a large area fallen leaves in the food growing space. We even did a bit of leaf identification before they went into the compost!

We are back here form Group Run next week helping to planting bulbs and trees check out the Camden listings.
