Share the love

This week, a small (some would say perfectly formed) group of goodgymmers met, once again, at the Urban Green Up Park Lane site.

It was fabulous to see all the plants looking so healthy, thanks in no small part to our previous weeding efforts.

This time, the main culprits were thistles and we had soon amassed a huge pile of weeds! Along the way, Ema found some glasses (!?) and Sally Ann discovered some rogue strawberries. Whilst working away, it felt like we were making little progress, but as soon as we stood back it was clear the impact we had had. We can't wait to see the plants continue to flourish - well done everyone!
