Last night was a long overdue return to Marston Forest Garden. We've been involved with this fabulous project for a few years now - from infamous winter mornings digging the ground for the medicine circle, to scything in last year's sweltering heat wave, we've stuck our fingers into a lot of tasks here!

Last night's tasks included starting to dig out a new pond, weeding around some of the mid-sized fruit trees and shrubs, mulching pear and quince saplings, and scything and sickling (is that a verb?!) around the medicine circle. An hour flew by, and we were treated to Isobel's fabulous cookies at the end plus a bouquet of wild flowers for our newest GoodGymer Sheron and another for Kieran to celebrate his 99th Good Deed.

Welcome to GoodGym Sheron.
