Surrey Docks Farm? We dig it.

Southwark Report written by Greenwich runner

On a sunny May afternoon, six keen GoodGym-ers arrived at one of our all time favourite Community Missions - helping out at Surrey Docks Farm!

As usual we received a very warm welcome from Kate and Pat, who had prepared a wide range of tasks for us to get stuck into. The main theme of the day, however, seemed to be digging and shovelling!

Rebecca and Vic got started by attempting to dig out a stubborn fence post that had snapped in the orchard. Meanwhile Zeina and Monika shovelled manure into barrows ready for use during the imminent planting of tomatoes. And over in the greenhouse, Lindy and Jenny set about clearing unwanted plants from pots and, reusing the soil in the raised beds where the farm are currently growing hops!

Half way through the task we had a bit of a change around of tasks, and Zeina and Monika moved onto turning over decomposing compost in the compost heaps. Lindy and Jenny carefully dug up weeds in the border, while avoiding the lovely Nasturtiums, ready for even more planting to take place.

And, of course, as per tradition the last half an hour of the task was spent playing with the animals! Firstly feeding chard to the hungry chickens and pigs, followed by cuddling the goats in their pen (without letting too many escape!)

Well done, great work everyone!

The Farming Life 🐏🐐

Southwark Report written by Sam Lefevre (he/him)

Six keen GoodGymers arrived outside the Farm well before 14:00 on a Sunday. They were super keen that even Becs (Farm Task Owner) didn't know they were suppose to come today. However, after a brief moment of "I wasn't expecting GoodGym", Becs invited us in as the Farm always has plenty of tasks to do.

After parking our bikes, washing our hands and collecting the tools, we split the group into two/three. Emily and Aidan were on clean-up duties - sweeping the goat yard and placing the straw and 💩 on the muck heap afterwards. Whilst Phil initially watered the plants in the polytunnel before joining Laura, Monika and Sam in the donkey's yard to dig out nettles and weeds along the edges/borders on the donkey yard. After they were done with the goats, Emily and Aidan did help with weeding near the front entrance of the Farm. 💪

There is always time at the end of the mission to hang out with the animals! This week, like last time, we chilled with the sheep and their lambs. They were more interested in the grass and I can't blame them.

More Surrey Docks Farm tasks will be coming through in July, so look out for them 😊

Hot & Sunny Day @ the Farm 🐏🐐🐎🐖

Southwark Report written by Sam Lefevre (he/him)

Despite the fact, England vs. Croatia was on and the whole of England was watching that match....five GoodGymers showed up in full force to assist Becs with her tasks! We even had one new GoodGymer - welcome to the family, Monika. Hopefully, you had a lovely time with us and thank you for sweeping up the courtyard with Miriam.

That was one of the tasks, as per usual, to ensure the goats live in a clean environment. The other tasks that Claire and Sara took turns in doing was watering the allotment beds as the day was a scorcher! 🔥

The final task, which I got involved in with the help out Claire and Sara was to pull the weeds and growth of greenery around the allotment beds and fence. The final thing to do was to put down some woodchip to ensure the weeds weren't going to grow back.

We have another farm mission in two weeks' time, so if you see a space, sign up!
