We had a lovely time at the Food Union Allotment. Welcome Joey who came to her first session.

Last night, we picked blackberries for the Pod Cafe’s upcoming supper club and cleared an area that had become a little overgrown in preparation for the planting of a fig tree. We also explored the site and enjoyed the beautiful summer’s evening.

Seven Coventry Goodgymers walked, ran and cycled to the Food Union Allotment to support with the general upkeep of the site that provides the Pod cafe with ingredients to make their lovely vegan menu!

For this task, we split into two groups, one group collected water from the river to water all of the thirsty plants (although it did try to rain whilst we were there), whilst the other group weeded around the courgettes and squash, carefully avoiding the cape gooseberry and cosmos that had seeded themselves! An excellent job well done and in a lovely location too - well done everyone!
