On a lovely sunny day, lots of GGrs made their way.. to Parkwood Springs ..to help plant lots of things.

Today Treerific Tim brought a wide variety of different soft fruit bushes for us to plant including: raspberries, red and white currants, jostaberries, worcesterberries, wineberries.

Oh what a pear! We all buddied up to form berry planting teams, after firstly undertaking a spot of weeding. Having planted all these healthy fruit bushes we were treeted to a sharing feast picnic, with hot drinks made on the lovely storm kettles by GG Caroline and GG Shona.

Our delicious lunchtime delights included: - Cheese scones baked by Awesome Ash aka 'Mary Berry' - Crepes and quince jelly made by Celine the Machine - Houmous and bread from Becky - Cider and rosemary bread made by Culinary Caroline and Treemendously Tall Tom aka 'the Paul Hollywoods'

After filling our faces we finished off with a final spot of weeding, watering our newly planted plants and packing away the tools.
Weed do it all again! Join us next month for another fun Parkwood Springs adventure :)
