5 Good Gymmers returned to Gainsborough Sq to continue emptying the planter located outside the former Buzz Cafe and relocate it to it's new home outside The Hub on the otherside of the square. Maria from the community project had secured a fresh supply of strong IKEA bags which we filled with soil. Maria's persuasive skills also roped in Hadyn & Ben, who had made the mistake of parking nearby, with their help (and minibus) we made short work of moving the soil, thanks guys! A socially distanced lift and jog was employed to carry the planter and it was then short work to place a layer of rotting logs (look up hugelkultur!) into the base of the planter and cover with soil, all ready for the local kids to plant up!
