Like almost all GoodGym missions, we started by pulling up the ragwort weeds. Then we cut any small saplings over an area at the top of People’s park. Finally, cutting the overhanging branches from trees above.

Once the prep work was done the trimmers cut the grass as we raked the debris. The seeds gathered at the mission last Saturday arrived in a van and were strewn on the newly cleared and cut areas.

This is a long-term project so we won’t see the results soon, but hopefully next year the wildflower seeds will have transformed the area!
