The heavens had opened up during our task at the Haven but a few hardy GoodGymers braved the torrential rainfalls and set about weeding two areas in the allotment. One group cleared the patch around the hand-made wood fire oven which had been grown over by nettles and dog weed. The other group prepared the ground for a new structure soon to be build. Literally breaking ground, we clear a nice and neat square for the foundation using forks and mattock (my new favorite tool!) to remove roots and brambles. We forgot about our soggy socks and wet shirts and worked our way through the task quickly. At the end, Haven member Steve was pleased with our work and I'm sure we will back at the Haven soon.

Nice work everyone!
