GoodGym Lambeth Run Report: Chip Happens! ๐Ÿƒโ€โ™€๏ธ๐ŸŒณ What a woody wonderful evening at Agnes Riley Gardens! Our magnificent crew showed up ready to get down and dirty (literally) with the Friends of the Park, and boy did we mulch things happen! ๐Ÿ’ช๐Ÿผ

The Dream Team Our usual legends Jo, Fi, Tilly, and Ben were firing on all cylinders, and we were absolutely thrilled to welcome back the long-lost Marie-Noelle! Weโ€™d really pined for her return! ๐ŸŒฒ

The Mission Armed with shovels, wheelbarrows, and questionable dance moves, we tackled two timber-rific tasks: โˆ™ Shifting mountains of wood chip onto the mud kitchen (because every tiny chef deserves a splinter-free workspace ๐Ÿ‘จโ€๐Ÿณ) โˆ™ Levelling ground for a new bench (future bottoms will thank us!) The Work There was shovelling. There was barrowing. There was laying. There was soil-turning. Basically, we were one wheelbarrow away from starting our own landscaping empire. You could say we really barked up the right tree with this one! ๐ŸŽฏ

The Grand Finale Whatโ€™s a GoodGym session without totally embarrassing ourselves? We wrapped up with a spontaneous Cha Cha Slide on our freshly laid wood chip dance floor. Slide to the left? โœ… Criss cross? โœ… Charlie Brown? Absolutely! ๐Ÿ’ƒ๐Ÿ•บ

Same time next week, legends? ๐Ÿพโœจโ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹โ€‹

Agnes Riley Gardens
A green space for local residents to enjoy

The park is located next to a number of large social housing estates. Clapham Park Estate, just over the road, is being redeveloped and large numbers of people will be moving into the area. There are three primary schools in the immediate area, plus a new secondary school soon to be developed. We already have some very committed volunteers giving their time to gardening in the park and they have told us they would like some support to run weekly gardening sessions which can help people grow some of their own food. We also want to help children better understand where their food comes from.
