What a difference a few days makes! After our wet, windy and cold experience on Tuesday evening, it was great to see the sun out this afternoon on the Northern Slopes!

Knowing that this afternoon's task was to continue shifting a load of compost from the top of the hill down the slope to the farm, I was delighted to see the progress that Chris and the others had made by the time I arrived - Chris had been there since 10 am and was enjoying a well earned warm beverage as I joined the afternoon session.

With fresh impetus there were 4 of us loading barrows with compost, concluding that forks rather than spades are the tool of choice.

Within an hour, the compost had all been piled up within the farm and we were on our way!

Always a pleasure to help out at the farm, the destination of my very first GoodGym run and it sounds like there's plenty to do there so hopefully many more to come!
