We gathered at Urban Escape to tick off some of the infinite tasks that come with such a big space.
Darren got to work with the wheelbarrow, covering the weeded paths with bark, while the rest of us got weeding in various forms.
Thanks to Tim and Mel for today’s pun (singsong?) inspired by the hole in their trug and thanks to Lisa for the garlic and onions (aka the allotment party bag).
We parted ways, keeping vampires at a suitable social distance thanks to our garlic which Richard's running bag conveniently had a made-for-purpose pocket!
This task supported
Urban Escape is based at the roundhouse and acre growing space at Springfield Allotments in Knowle and aims to reconnect young people and adults with nature, create lasting relationships and supporting local people on their journey through life. The project utilises a wide variety of outdoor activities, life skills and group work as the tool to engage the groups and build relationships. Hands on and creative activities throughout the year include bush craft, growing, foraging and cooking fresh food, natural arts and crafts, community engagement and social action projects. The Junior, Senior and Adult groups take ownership of their projects by choosing activities and trips at different points through the year. All three groups have a maximum of 10 young people/adults at any one time because of the tools and activities used for the sessions. http://www.youthmoves.org.uk/urban-escape
