We were set tasks which were accomplished in the Nursery. We were introduced to the staff who were helpful and happy at work. There were two of us this time, putting plants into large black trays to be filled with water. Last task, we deadheading.
We finished at 11.30am, and then walked home. Just very glad to have helped and enjoy the atmosphere.

Laura and Karen spent a very pleasant morning at Braywick Heath Nursery. They started off putting the rather overgrown pots of vegetables into trays to make them easier to look after. Once the vegetables had been tamed they moved outside to dead head the flowers in the sun.

Laura, Karen and Sheila helped out at Braywick Plant Nurseries, potting up plug plants. It's nearing the end of this job for this season and the greenhouses are looking very full of plants ready to sell. We had the honour of potting up the last of the plants to go into 6-packs (Pelargoniums and Petunias), but also impatiens and lavender. Well done on speedy potting up, and the nursery, as ever, we're grateful for our help

Braywick Plant Nurseries needed more help with potting up their plug plants, so they can be grown up ready to sell. Didem, Karen and Sheila got a good system going, and got through several trays of plants, keeping Bob busy finding space for them on the sales benches. Great work, team!

Four GoodGymers met at Braywick Heath Nursery to help them prepare for a bumper Summer. This meant "plugging" saplings into pots filled with compost.
In a bright back-room, with the radio belting out easy tunes, we plugged away! It was therapeutic, almost. We worked non-stop for 2 hours and must've filled close to 100-200 pots.
Ben, the Nursery manager who worked tirelessly to top up compost, move the filled pots, bring new plugs etc, joked that we had worn him out, we were that efficient! We'll take that as a compliment and look forward to wearing him out again in the future 😂

Goodgym continues to support Braywick Plant Nurseries in planting up thousands of plug plants, ready for growing on ready for sale. Today it was 4 different colours of Lobelia followed by some Petunias. We kept the staff busy topping up the compost and taking the plants away so we could fill up the trays again. It was so satisfying seeing the fruits of our labours all laid out in the greenhouse. A great team effort
