Slowly slowly clearing away the bindweeds
1 GoodGymer made their way to help the Friends of Queen’s Promenade in Kingston upon Thames.
- Saturday, 23rd of March 2024
- Led by Kingston upon Thames runner
One GoodGymer, Marie-Noëlle, joined the Kingston Friends of Queen's Promenade team on this bright but gusty Saturday.
Today's mission was to tackle the invasive, creeping bindweeds which had smothered an area of the promenade.
10 volunteers were hard at work, digging deep, as the roots are said to reach up to 7 metres.
After a good couple of hours, we packed away our tools and sat down for a well earned rest, a hot cup of tea & some yummy homemade pakoras.
🎉Happy 5th birthday Friends of Queen's Promenade 🎉
