Rain Interrupts Play

Tuesday 17th December

Tonight, our last task before the Christmas break, was a damp one! We were unable to work in the secret garden, so we made sure the task owner was well, had a little social catchup with her and then had a little social ourselves. We'll be back in the new year to do good!

A Weedy Good Time

Tuesday 9th January

Written by Craig Barber (He/him)

Tonight the 3 of us were back at the secret garden to do a tiny spot of weeding and seed planting. On an absolutely freezing evening we were treated to a hot chocolate from the task owner. We cleared the area and planted seeds, chatted about new year resolutions and had a little run too.

Animals of Farthing Wood

Tuesday 8th November 2022

Written by Craig Barber (He/him)

This evening, 3 GoodGymers were at the Secret Garden, clearing a pathway from weeds, leaves, berries and moss, ensuring it remains safe and accessible.

Despite the dark and the rain, its always a pleasure to be at this task. We saw the fox and vixen, adopted by the task owner (who hid before I could take a picture!) and heard all about the cake eating mouse, the badgers and hedgehogs. And we cant also forget Graham the cat who watched us work. We were also treated to hot chocolate and biscuits! Perfect!
