This was a big task helping Square Food Foundation with the relocation of its garden to a new location so that they can continue growing food and using the garden for food education. Four runners cleared allotment beds of weeds and grass and shifted a few tons of soil into the beds over the course of two hours. Let’s pause there and think about that for a second...just a few tons! This was a true GoodGym workout!

This also may rank as one of our muddiest tasks yet, with rain adding some extra weight to the soil for good measure. We were kept on task by Lily the Jack Russell and her owner. By the end, we were quite the sight, but pleased with the tidy beds ready for planting.

Square Food is Bristol’s cookery school and community kitchen. We’re a charity that works to reduce hunger, improve health and build resilience through food and cooking.
