Dried off from flyering we were joined by six other goodgymers for an indoor session as the weather was too treacherous for goat mountain escapades.

It was lovely to also welcome Bethan for the first time this evening!

We were tasked with doing something very unique this evening, making seed bombs out of clay, mud and soil for the farm to distribute at a community event.

A small group ventured into the woods to retrieve some soil before heading in. We then had to remove twigs and worms from the soil before mixing the soil with clay and water and eventually the seeds.

We then rolled these into small ping pong sized balls before removing them for safe keeping.

We were tasked with making 60 but Abby counted 217!!

Definitely a unique task and we were even rewarded with cake 🍰
