we expertly cleaned the chairs and it was such a warm day that the hot air dried them off in no time

Last night, our team met in Willesden and ran to Clitterhouse Farm, ready to roll up our sleeves and get stuck into some serious garden work.

The biggest task of the evening was shifting a hefty pile of firewood—log after log, we worked as a team to move it all efficiently using bags and wheelbarrows to help.

Once the wood was sorted, we tackled the wild garden, removing thorns, weeds, and a particularly large patch of bindweed. It was satisfying work, and the space looked noticeably better by the end of the evening.

Rob handed out a number of other odd jobs including bending metal rods and tidying up rubbish .

Huge thanks to everyone who came along and made light work of a heavy job. Clitterhouse Farm is a special place, and it was great to contribute to keeping it thriving.

Samina, Tabitha and Pete met at Beer n Burger and jogged about 3km to the Abbey Community Centre where Jason told them what needed to be done in the garden. We met Beatriz there and Lee arrived soon after. The garden is lovely with great beds, a greenhouse and loads of pots around the edges. Pete and Beatriz were watering with hosepipe and watering cans.,later joined by Samina. Lee Tabitha and Samina were weeding. It was a nice evening and lots got done. We walked back and had a nice drink at Beer n Burger (and Lee had chips, naturally). Great job!

Samina, Tabitha, Chris, Pete and Christian joined Jack at Corsham Sheltered Housing in Wembley to distribute soil into the raised beds to get them ready for planting in May. Much time was spent shovelling soil into wheelbarrows then taking them up to the raised beds and tipping the soil in. We welcomed Christian for the first time who came all the way from Kingston and did a great job. At the end we put the tools away. The beds are looking much better now. Well done everyone.
