Tonight, 14 of us met ready to get stuck in and mulch the trees in Walpole Park.

Keen to get started, we entered the Rickyard to collect the tools. But alas, we'd been left lots of wheelbarrows but no shovels! So what did we do? Go home? NO WAY! We gathered up various buckets and plastic plant pots and we improvised the hell out of this task!

We scooped and bundled mulch into the barrows by any means possible and after an hour of hard work we'd mulched a few of the key trees at the top of the park.

It was an excellent workout. We had lots of lifting and even running between the mulch site and where the trees were.

#NAILED IT!
