Share the love

St Mary had a little land who's raised beds needed a weed.

St Marys Catholic primary school had a very weedy garden that needed the Goodgym touch. There was no lamb, but there were chickens, and a cat on a toilet.

Runners arrived either on two feet or four wheels and we took our Thyme setting to work clearing raised beds and walkways to give a blank canvas for the pupils planning to plant vegetables in spring and for wild flowers where weeds once ran wild.

In the darkness, cold and rain removing herbs, weeds and grass. No one fell in the pond, but we may have dug a bush too far. The hour flew by and with many tasks in mind to return for we left the chickens to roost and headed for home.
