If Ewe Go Down to the Farm today
27 GoodGymers made their way to help the Oxford City Farm in Oxford.

Oxford City Farm had welcomed Goodgym to their site a few times in 2019 so it was a delight to be back there this evening.
It was fantastic to see so many new faces at this session: Welcome to Elena, Lucy, Milly, and Sian.
After temperature checks on arrival, hand sanitizing and an introduction from Sally and Phil the team got to work. Our tasks were wide ranging today - trench digging, ramp dismantling, a thorough tidy of the outside shelter area, weeding and mulching the previously planted fruit trees and watering the contents of the poly-tunnels.
As usual the team were wonderful, getting stuck in with enthusiasm and an exciting array of tools - Aoife in particular has found a new vocation.
The transformation at the end was fantastic to see. Personally I love a task where the supervisors are sheep, chickens and a very beautiful cat. We hope to have many more tasks at this marvellous City Farm.
