On Wednesday, we ran 6pm to YHA Thameside to help with some weeding. James navigated us there. We arrived in the hot and humid weather, just as a large group of school children were checking in. Emma and Jessie met us there. Amongst the chaos, we found a staff member who showed us where we needed to weed, as well as giving us some large jugs of water.

Once we finished, we headed off back to Peckham. The route back was chosen democratically. I was very tired.

On Wednesday 14 of us went to do some weeding at Peckham Rye Park and Common Tiny Forest (which has grown a lot since our last visit!) followed by a game of bowls at Peckham Bowls. We did get caught in the rain on our loop of the park but it stopped by the time we got to Tiny Forest. And luckily was dry for the rest of the evening.

4 intrepid Good Gymmers arrived super early at the farm ahead of the Spring Fair. Gemma, farm manager, set us to work on an assortment of tasks including gazebo assembly, outdoor furniture feng shui and plant identification. The latter was surprisingly complicated and I’m sure we all discovered new varieties of tomatoes! It was another great session at the farm and we look forward to returning to our usual Sunday slot in 2 weeks.
