Today I joined a team of volunteers unload, unpack and replenish stocks at Borough food pantry. It was an enjoyable 2 hour session from 10.30am to 12.30pm

On a cold and dark evening, 4 Good Gymmers arrived to return the farm to normal operations following the day’s Christmas festivities. We developed an efficient system for taking down gazebos, carrying tables to the local church hall and dismantling an extremely large marquee. After all that effort, there was just enough time for a cup of warm mulled apple juice before heading out into the December night.

It's been a while since I last saw Folarin, so it was a pleasure to see him after many months. Of course, we helped SE5 Forum setup their stall from 09:30 - 10:00. We put up the gazebo, tables and displays.

On a chilly December night 7 goodgymmers braved the elements to ascend Dawson's Heights for the penultimate task of the year. Crooked beds fixed. Bulbs planted. Wood chip spread. Before returning to base and seeking warm refuge in the new and improved Nags Head. Good Job Team

Waited an hour before the delivery came and then used the second hour to unload and pack the veggies and fruits into crates and onto the shelves.

We did a fun litter pick in the Goldsmith Nature Reserve in Peckham. All sorts was collected by the team with a huge 4 bags of litter removed from the Nature Garden in 35 minutes.

The garden was less enchanting than Tom's midnight garden, although if we had stayed until the witching hour who knows how it would have come alive!?

On the way back we were plogging - running and litter picking, although some were better at that than others.

A little chaotic, a little cold but we all had a good time and it did feel like the Nature Garden has a lot less litter now.
