On a watery day in Princes Park, 5 Goodgym runners came together to help Friends of Princes Park (F. O. P. P if you want to be trendy) with tree planting.

After some cold rain initially, Liz and Robert of F. O. P. P set us to work setting up the mesh, timber posts, loppers etc.

We found our rhythm and began working in teams, digging the hole, blending the mulch, planting the tree, driving two posts and fitting the mesh. This protection will give the trees a better chance of growing strong. Another win for cleaner air!!

In total we planted 5 trees and set up their protection. 5 for 5 Goodgym runners! The trees were Price of India and Witch Hazel.

Thanks to our photographer Yan and kudos to each of you for helping F. O. P. P and the environment. Cosy warmth is well earned!!
