On Tuesday afternoon, Area Activator Simon and new Goodgym runner Harish joined Single Homeless Project gardening expert Lorena for some lunch break planting and digging.

Two local gardeners were also on hand to help with strimming the long grass across the communal garden space at the back of the residents dorms. Our first task involved digging some holes in hard, dry ground to plant a collection of fruit trees (with fresh soil and compost). Fresh water and mulch was also added to help the little trees on their way! Following this, we then moved a few older trees, and replanted them on the brighter and sunnier side of the garden.

We were so happy to see that our previously printed lavender bushes were thriving since our last visit!
