Report written by Paula (She/her)

Share the love

Three intrepid GoodGymers made their way to Greenhill Allotments to help clear one of the allotments to make it more appealing and hopefully get someone in to take it over.

It was no small task and the roots seemed determined to defeat us. Forks, hoes and a weird twisty weeding thing were put to work.

A lot of effort and only one minor health and safety incident when a root gave way which led to a flying fist and an unlucky nose…. I forgive you!

Brilliant effort by all and we’ll definitely be making a return trip.

We are bringing back into order a small allotment site which has become ovegrown

A small local allotment for the cultivation of veg, fruit and flowers and to provide outdoor space especially for those with none at home. It is a secured site so that access would only be by contacting one of the organisers.
