Rake and Chips - like Cod and Chips, but maybe you fancy a more sustainable fish like Hake. Hake rhymes with Rake, so yes your right that is a good pun.

8 of us turned up last night to help Moorlands Gardens spread some woodchip. They had a massive pile of woodchip blocking a car park space so our job was to clear the space and spread it across the paths around their community allotments.

Effie, Tim, and The Lobster King got to work with the rakes spreading the chips evenly across the path while Will, Dawn, Dan, Clare and Tom did the actual hard work shoveling the woodchip into wheelbarrows and transporting around the allotments.

only 3 mores barrels to go

After an hour the new paths were looking fantastic and Katleen was very happy with the work we had done.
