6 of us met at Age Uk to help clear their garden today. It's normally a day centre and the garden is used by its visitors for growing veg and flowers and as a nice place to sit. But since lockdown no one has been able to tend to the weeds and they have got a bit out of hand. . The 6 of us pulled out weeds, chopped back hedges, strimmed the lawn and waters the plants. We even harvested a couple of potatoes by mistake. . It was a boiling afternoon and after an hour we all felt like baked potatoes but the garden was looking a lot better!
