The community garden at Geffreyโs Hall is looking crazy overgrown but a little less so now!
I pulled out all the big weeds in the โlawnโ so Martin could come through with the mower.
Unfortunately the grass was too thick and wet so it might have to wait until we have the strimmer working ๐ช

But what a wonderful way to start off the brand new GoodGym Mottingham journey โจ with a trio of weeders making a difference in one of the many amazing community spaces Mottingham has to offer.
Geffrey's Hall Community Centre is a local community hub, but it's garden area was looking a little unloved. But not for long! We'll be heading back on a regular basis to bring some life back to it.
Tonight we did some simple weeding around the entrance:
๐ช Pulling back a grass carpet which covered some of the paving slabs
๐ฑ Emptying some HUGE pots of little and large weeds
๐ท Watching out for webs and stinging nettles...
๐ And making a big pile of everything we removed which will go on the compost heap
It was great to meet Richard for his first ever GoodGym task ๐ especially with his enthusiasm to get stuck in and gardening knowledge!
This is the start of many more sessions in Mottingham. Keep an eye out on all upcoming events here.
