For Trees a Jolly Good Feller
31 GoodGymers made their way to help the Sheffield City Council in Sheffield.
- Saturday, 23rd of March 2019
- Led by Sam Needham
GoodGymmers representing a fair few of the 50 areas from across the country descended on Gleadless in Sheffield to help Terrific Tim and his team plant nearly a thousand trees.
It was wormageddon as we set to with our spades, planting...
- Birch
- Mountain ash
- Wild cherry
- Crab apple
- Oak
- Black poplar
- Alder buckthorn
- Field maple
- Guelder rose
...Either by notch, pit or L planting (it takes years of experience to make it look at easy as Tim did in his demonstrations!)
A fine time was had by all, and we even found time for a Bakewell Tart Off towards the end of the mission.
Till next time... Happy running. And indeed planting too.
(No trees were actually felled during the mission...)
