We visited Wensum Park again to continue the work we started last week.

We finished clearing the 12 star sign flower beds. Some needed old roots digging out, lavender cut back, stones removing and some just a complete turnover of the soil.

They are now pretty much ready to be planted.

Well done everyone, we'll have to return later in the year to see how it has flourished over the summer.

307 people attended a cool, drizzly parkrun today, starting their weekend in a positive, healthy, motivating way. well done everyone.

The rain didn't put us off helping to continue the amazing Mile X community garden project on Burges Road last night.

The tasks we had to do were leveling out and laying down a wooden border for a new accessible path, while half of the group weeded another area.

It was my first visit there for a while, so it was great to see the progress been made from local volunteers and GoodGym.

We soaked to the bone by time we finished but it was well worth it.

Tonight 13 GoodGymer's ran or cycled 6km to Burges Road Community Garden.

The list of tasks to complete this evening were sieving soil, planting tomatoes, reshaping and digging a path, and raking soil to level out the new raised beds.

There was a lot of raking involved In order to make the raised beds level, we even used a spirit level to make sure we were doing an accurate job!

But the transformation in 1 hour was fantastic, with a new path dug out ready for the team of engineers arriving next month.

If I had to pick a soundtrack to tonight, it would be 'This Garden' by the Levellers.

Well done team on the hottest day of the year!!
