Another evening in the global gardens, well why not?

8 goodgym volunteers made their way over to the wonderful project that's about supporting community-based sharing of food and cultures. As we had already had some rain this past week the ground was okay, so no need to get your cans out too much. However, this bit of rain had meant an explosion of growth around the site, of everything including those pesky plants bindweed and brambles.

First let us WELCOME Estelle

Thanks for joining us on your first ever goodgym mission, we hope that you enjoy it enough to come back for more.

Now the wonderful Poppy showed us the tasks to be done, split around the site from the seating circle to the newest cleared area. Mostly weeding and tidying just to keep on top of everything whilst new plants became more established, plus a bit of watering for the thirsty pumpkins. So we split into groups and got to work.......

In 40 minutes most of the first tasks were complete, but with plenty of time to spare we all moved onto the new patch to join up with the rest of the group where we attacked the brambles around the young hazel trees.

Two minute warning

A last minute frenzy of cutting as Poppy went around gathering our collective mess, tools down, tidy up and time for us to admire our work. A great end to the month for goodgym Cardiff and the Vale, with plenty more to come in July and some visits to new projects, have a look and get signed up.
