Share the love

Melissa, Lisa, Rosie and Sheila gathered at the community allotment on Good Friday evening. We filled the water butts behind the shed and then settled down to some other tasks. Lisa filled over the bean trench in bed 5 and picked out the stones, while Melissa weeded the bed at the end of the large shed, and again waged war on the stones. Meanwhile Sheila and Rosie started the task of digging out the roots where we had removed the shrubs at Wednesday's Goodgym session. Not an easy task! Let's just call it work in progress!


This task supported

The Maidenhead Community Allotment is run by a group of volunteers, who grow food to share with local residents, the users of the Boyn Grove Community and Resource Centre and Maidenhead Foodshare. They work with Men in Sheds, who are based on the same site. Men in Sheds is an initiative to combat loneliness by providing a space for men to connect and chat over practical tasks.
