Mission

A ribbitting evening of weeding

2 GoodGymers made their way to help an isolated older person in Camden.

Two GG Camden runners went to help Ms B de-weed the garden so she can enjoy her big beautiful garden before the end of the summer. Sophie had been to see Ms B before so knew the task ahead.

When we arrived we were greeted by Ms B and her lovely cat. Our task for the evening was simple, pull out the weeds and put it in a garden waste bag.

Sophie and I got to work and started pulling out the weeds ready to stuff it in the bag. What we didn't anticipate was the bag was also home to a baby frog. We carefully got the frog out of the bag being careful not to draw the attention of Ms B's cat and then got to work.

Although we were weeding for quite a while, the garden is so big that there is still a lot to do.

It would be great to get more runners to help Ms B's garden so that she can make use of it before the evenings get dark again.
