GoodGymers manned a pop-up cafe at the City Farm on a very blustery day- so our main task was to stop everything blowing away!

We made teas and coffees, served cakes and biscuits, and during a quiet period made some name tags for the trees out of old drinks cans. Trev took on the bulk of the washing up, and tried to convince us it's the best way to keep warm(!) It was a great day to be a part of, with all the trees planted in record time, so the City Farm could move onto other tasks as well.

Thanks to everyone involved, and we hope to go back again soon!

P.S. This task was extra special for me as it was my 50th! A good excuse for a slice of cake :)
