Today 7 GoodGymer's ran, cycled and walked to join the Friends of Anderson's Meadow local gardening group.

Tools were provided along with refreshments! We helped clear an area of overgrown unwanted plants to create a wild flower patch, improving the areas biodiversity.

Once the surface had been cleared and litter removed, some wildflower seeds were sown and stomped into the ground. We also erected a bamboo and twine fence to protect the plant growth.

In one hour the task was complete on a lovely sunny day!

It was another lovely summer evening at Marlpit Community Gardens.

The main take was to do some weeding around the vegetable patches.

We were kindly treated to some red lettuces.

It couldn't have been a more tranquil evening, as we visited Marlpit Community Gardens as the sun started to lower and the cattle grazing in the adjacent field.

We had a tough task on our hands as we started to make inroads to move a pile of bark to the other end of the gardens (about 200 metres away).

There were 7-8 wheelbarrows and it was a grueling task of shoveling the bark into the barrows and transporting them before unloading.

Liz discovered a Toad in the pile of bark, which was then safely transferred to the pond area.

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.

This evening 12 GoodGymers broke their Wensum Park virginity as we visited there for the first time.

Congratulations to Rose for completing her 100th GoodGym deed!

Also a big welcome to Josie who was partaking in her first good deed.

The task in hand was to dig over so unused flowerbeds so they can be planted with new flowers etc.

Each flower bed already has a different star sign stone in front of it, so the plan will be to full it with flowers that relate to each colour in relation to the star sign.
