On a glorious sunny Sunday, Peter, Paul and Ingrid joined Sue for another session at St Augustine's neighbourhood garden.

The main task was to remove a Peony plant (which will be planted elsewhere), weed the bed and dig a hole to plant a large Myrtle bush. It was a challenge to ensure the hole was the correct depth and no weeds or roots remained in the bed. Once the Myrtle was in place, we set about weeding the other beds. Finally Sue and Ingrid visited the local recycling centre to deposit the weeds we collected in the green waste.

We look forward to future weekend sessions at the garden with Sue and hope the weather is a kind as it was today.
