Despite the date for the task only having been set 2 days ago we had 5 keen GoodGymers raking up the hay in the wildflower meadow at Foxwood Park this evening. We started in the light but were soon reliant on our headtorches to try and find the cut grass. When we first saw the area to be raked it seemed quite an undertaking but by the end of the hour we'd got to the far end of the wildflower area which was the priority. Some of us had been involved in digging the area for this a couple of years ago so it was good to hear it had been successful.
