The sun came out this evening for a great Good Gym session all about trees! The group divided into three tasks. Rosa, Graham, Sharon, Annabel and Simon were planting trees. Kevin, Charlotte and Basia were putting the trees into wheel barrows and pushing them over to an area where Hilary and I were counting the trees. Silver Birch, Hazel, Crab Apple, Blackthorn....trees as far as the eye could see - even one called Goat Willow! There was a lot of lifting work involved tonight - who needs weights when you can lift a bucket of Wild Cherry?
