Every day's a school day
3 GoodGymers made their way to help the All Saints Asylum Seeker project in Portsmouth.
- Sunday, 13th of June 2021
- Led by Judy Knapp
Nick, Ami and I helped with the ongoing clearance of the garden at All Saints church.
It was an international group of gardeners, with representatives from Turkey, Czech Republic and Iraq, amongst others. And we learnt from each other: Fatima and Peter both recognised the lime trees in the garden and knew that the flowers can be used to make a tea, which is soothing for sore throats.
Ami did a great job of weeding under some of the rose bushes, and had scratches to prove it! Nick cleared around the lime trees and filled the compost bins. I did a lot of chatting and dead-headed the roses!
