Two Goodgymers ran and cycled to Dalston to help Mrs D with her garden.

On a sunny Saturday morning in Hackney, Eva and Nekane went to see Mrs D to help her clear the weeds from her front garden. Her beautiful roses had become overgrown with a voracious green weed that had taken over the garden. The intrepid Goodgymers set about pulling up all the weeds, only to find a complicated spaghetti junction root network under the ground. Digging deep down, and removing the paving stones to get to those bothersome underground roots they soon managed to clear out four bin bags of weeds and roots.

After a quick drink with Mrs D, the pair set off on their weekend travels.
