A small but hard working group arrived at St M's in Paulsgrove tonight after a run/cycle up the hill.

Tasks were allocated with Jo, Wilson and I moving and painting the large planter ready for it to be lined and filled.

Tracey was on watering duty making sure the plants and trees were well hydrated. The strawberries that we planted last time were looking very healthy and we even sampled some of the fruits. The rainbow chard was also growing nicely and Wilson and I got to take some home for dinner (perks!)

Once our first jobs were completed we were round to the back of the building to tackle the ivy and brambles. We found lots of nature including a cricket that tried to hitch a lift home with Jo, a couple of slow worms and plenty of snails. 🦗

A well completed task and we went home dusty and hotter than we started, which is definitely the sign of a good night 🤣
