On a rather drizzly day, Alice and Rich decided that their spirits would not be dampened and headed over to help out at St Werb's Community Farm & Gardens.

Focussing on an area that's new to GoodGym Bristol, we experienced the novel joy of cleaning out their greenhouse guttering with what could only be described as an inbuilt giant flossing device.

After some flossing device repairs and the guttering leaf and gunk free, we moved on to clean one of the polytunnels which had become rather mouldy and green over winter, blocking the light from the lovely spring plantlets growing inside.

For this we had the joy of using another fun scrubbing contraption that was attached to a hose and experienced a decent amount of entertaining hose disasters in the process of getting the polytunnel squeaky clean!

An enjoyable and productive evening had by all - we look forward to further sessions which will be held once per month until September 2023!
