Spotting rocks, sticks and wood in the middle paddock
Five GoodGymers visited Windmill Hill City farm this chilly Wednesday morning.
We all took part in finding rocks, sticks and wood in the middle paddock and removing these items in order to make the environment safe for animals.
It was lovely seeing the animals this morning and also nice to be outside and chatting to fellow volunteers whilst doing good in the commuity. Well done everyone :)

Spacing things up
On this lovely Friday morning, 6 GoodGym runners returned to the farm to help with getting a paddock ready for the sheep to return. After a quick assessment of which tools might work best to break up the lumps of compost/manure and spread them evenly across the pasture, some opted for rakes and others of shovels. Despite some warming rays of sun breaking through the clouds, the ground was still a bit frosty and the air surprisingly cold. Swift raking and shoveling warmed us up and the paddock looked fabulous when we were finished (although the untrained eye might have thought the opposite was true as the green was now covered in sh*t) .
Big shout out to Danielle, who completed her first ever good deed with this task. She was, of course, rewarded with some goat cuddles.
Great job everyone!

Are you finding it hard to motivate yourself in the morning? Come and join us for a end of the week morning dose of goodness at Windmill Hill City Farm.
Early morning, fresh air, walking/running/cycling (or however else you travel), volunteering, animals (and people, if you like them - socially distanced of course) - what a great way to start your day!
The farm is planning to lay a new gravel path along their animal paddocks so we will scrape off the old surface material and prepare the paths for their make-over. Expect a decent workout for our arms and upper body ;)

Lucy is a now a fully fledged GoodGym runner. They've just run to do good for the first time. They are out there making amazing things happen and getting fit at the same time.
Lucy completed a community mission. Instead of watching TV or lying in bed, Lucy was out there making their community a better place to be. For making that choice they have earned the community cape.
