Wandsworth Council kindly donated 5 bags of high quality mulch to improve the the soil in the Wandsworth GG garden, so on Wednesday evening we got to work spreading and mixing it into the beds. Once the area was prepped and ready, we planted some new crops too - tomatoes, squash and even a couple of rhubarb plants, and gave them all a little protective house with recycled drinks bottles. And the best part was, the plants were all purchased with money won at the monthly pub quiz, our usual haunt for the monthly social!

It was great to see the fig tree starting to sprout a few leaves too - hopefully a sign that warmer weather is on the way and that the tree is liking it's new home.

We've got seeds to plant next, so keep your eyes peeled for a weekend mission some time soon.
