Marston Forest Garden
About this session
Welcome to WWF x GoodGym’s Workout for Nature
From 7th April WWF and GoodGym are collaborating on hundreds of sessions to celebrate Earth Day. Each session will involve a Workout for Nature - a physical volunteering activity which will benefit local green spaces, and give your own wellbeing a boost. Simply sign up below and come along. No experience required!
Marston Forest Garden is part of the Marston Community Garden cooperative, which comprises a community allotment, the Forest Garden, a chicken coup, an orchard and a new Community Wood on New Marston Recreation Ground, plus much more.
Jobs at Marston Forest Garden usually include digging and weeding, laying cardboard for weed suppression, spreading wood chip etc.
Bring your gardening gloves. All tools will be provided.

What to look out for
Make sure you've read our general guidelines for safety for taking part in a GoodGym session.
This is a GoodGym group run. You'll meet other GoodGymers at the start location and run to the task together. If you can't run for more than 15 minutes without stopping or you're worried about any aspect of the session, contact your area activator Anwen Greenaway by email at anwen@goodgym.org.
Options are available to run between 5km and 7km in total.
Remember that we will be running to and from the task, so you'll only be running for half this distance in one go.
