“Dig for Victory” is one of those classic war time phrases and it was certainly a major part of our military mission today!

It was thyme for a fresh start in this family allotment, but the GoodGym army were all dressed up with nowhere to grow!

GoodGymers don’t moss around and after a helpful health and safety briefing they quickly got to work.

Tracey and Gwyn definitely did their good weed for the day, turning over all the soil in the newly cut beds.

Ash, Naomi and Nicky had a “sod” of job, but it didn’t herb their enthusiasm as they corrected the work of an overly enthusiastic digger operator and re-laid the turf along the central allotment path.

Meanwhile we were lucky enough to be joined by Clive on his first ever GoodGym task! We asked him to tackle the thing that runs around the garden but never moves...the fence line!

There is never a dill moment on a GoodGym mission and it was great to get out together and do good once again.

A huge thank you to everyone for helping to kick start this new community garden, with a fantastic community mission! We’ll keep you updated as the garden quite literally grows!
