Putting our backs in to it for the bees

5 GoodGymmers were warmly welcomed at Newtown Community Association to prepare an area of ground for a wildflower garden. Members of the association are planning to plant a wildflower garden to increase biodiversity, attracting bees and butterflies. They have been struggling due to small volunteer numbers, so we were able to help out by lifting the grass and weeds to leave space for seeds to be planted. Judith and her friend Margaret from the association were fantastic, treating us to snacks and drinks and even a specially created banner (a first for GoodGym Exeter I think!)
