Bristol Report written by Melanie Young (she/her)
A second trip to St Paul's Community Learning Centre to the out-of-control but not-so-out-of-control-anymore garden. It wasn't too hot, nor too cold and it wasn't raining, at least at the beginning...
It was great to be joined by Vineet for the first time, who set off with not-seen-for-ages Neil in Vaguely Northern Darren's running group whilst the walkers sped along behind them.
We were soon behind the big fence and chopping, digging and clearing weeds from the area previously cleared and some more either side. More forks were out and about with a couple of nameless GoodGymmers being stronger than they knew, or the weeds being tougher than we thought.
Six-legged friends were made and kept safe, released into areas we weren't tackling, and obviously two-legged friends were made, too.
The compost heap was soon being stacked higher and higher and the ground was looking browner and tidier. And it takes more than a bit of summer rain to put us off!
Sasha was once again impressed by the amount of progress whilst she focussed on weeding the cultivated side of the garden, sensibly not letting GoodGymmers anywhere near the plants she wanted to stay in the ground.
Some great teamwork on the big brutish weeds and they were chopped and tidied, the paths were swept and the team stopped for a quick photo before heading back at varying speeds to Queen Square and Workout - another top evening and warm enough to sit outside.
Shall we do it all again next week?

There’ll be even fewer weeds in their garden
