4 Epic GoodGymers shoveled, barrowed and conquered the Springfield park hill.

Some ran, some walked and some cycled our way to Springfield park to meet Joe from the Springfield park regeneration team. grabbed a wheelbarrow and a shovel each a d headed down to the wokdchip mound. piling the barrows high then setting off up the tough Springfield park hill to the community garden. After our efforts to fill the raised beds on the last few visits with compost today we were suppressing the weeds around the beds with woodchip. so careful and strategic tipping over 5 trips each covered the required area so that the the local schools can realky get stuck into some gardening on their visit later in the week!

Thank you so much for coming along, see you again soon!
