This week, we were back at The Greenhouse Project (for the 22nd time!?). After a quick run up from Hope Street, we were tasked with mulching the raised beds.

We've done this a few times before but in order to keep on top of the weeds, it needs to be done fairly regularly - a tall order for the small team at the greenhouse project. Thankfully, we had plenty of hands, including newbie Amina. Welcome aboard, it was great to meet you!

After a quick weeding session to get rid of the main culprits, we transferred the mulch to the beds by any means possible (wheelbarrows, wheelie bins, even a shopping trolley!). Then the challenge was to spread it evenly. As they say, many hands make light work and I think its fair to say, mission accomplished everyone! Well done!
