For the latest GoodGym Bristol Saturday run we ran to South Bristol to help the Patchwork project plant bulbs in some of their pocket garden spaces in Bedminster and Southville.

We met at Roll for the Soul at 11 and ran across the harbour into Bedminster. At the first site on Clifton Lane we met the Patchwork group and got stuck into the task. We worked in pairs to first weed and then plant bulbs.

Once the first site was complete, after a quick cake break, we ran to the second site at Lower Street Green where we completed the speedy planting despite the rain, getting lots more bulbs in.

To complete the run we ran back through Southville, around the harbour and back to Roll for the Soul. Great work all round!
