Today's brief felt like a secret mission into the Pyrenees: mulch around some guerilla planted fruit trees on the impossibly steep slopes just outside Royate Hill allotments! A true team effort was required to shovel wood chip into crates, transport the crates to the foot of the hill, and then ascend to the lofty heights where the baby fruit trees basked in the sunshine. Luckily, we had a new GG member to help us (welcome, Sarah!!) and nobody discovered that they had vertigo. Meanwhile, on the ground, team Shears & Rakes cut back the encroaching plant life from a public foot path (you're welcome, Bristol City Council). We were rewarded with lovely thank you's from the allotment crew, including some juicy apples from the orchard. Bring on the next mission!
