Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Alice James
Another fantastic morning at the farm! 5 Goodgymmers met and were set to work clearing a patch that used to be a flower bed. We made steady progress clearing out rubble and putting it in a "neat pile" that got increasingly un-neat... And then digging out around half a foot of clay earth that got wheelbarrowed up to a bed by the pigs. It wouldnt be a morning at the farm without a bit of wheelbarrowing!
Art had a real knack for uncovering large stones and weaving tales of their origins, while Holly and Emily worked tirelessly to dig out the clay, and Alice and Meyrick wheelbarrowed, with much-needed help from others!
Looking forward to next time we're back :)
Bath City Farm was set up by the local community in the early 1990s, when the resident farmer retired. It gained charitable status in 1995. Over the past 17 years there has been considerable progress on site, including introducing our Soay sheep, goats, chickens, ducks and pigs, a pony and most recently a flock of guinea fowl
