Going potty

Friday 23rd August

Written by David Head

After the evening winds we were greeted by a nice morning at the farm and today we tidied the pots in the greenhouse whilst admiring the beautiful ginger plant. We then moved to the allotment area to clear up some leaves and compost them. We also had time to say hi to the goats and admire the tomatoes in the poly tunnel. Great work everyone ๐Ÿ‘

Until the next pebble encounter๐ŸŒ„. Great job everyone. ๐Ÿ’ช

Can never compost 200 good deeds

Friday 26th July

Written by David Head

A big congratulations to Emma for 200 amazing good deeds and a big happy birthday from all GG to you ๐Ÿ’š. A lovely morning greeted the GG team and we had a specific task to empty a compost heap into sacks ready for the farm to use on their floral and vegetable delights. We do love this place. Great team work pursued with a stream of wheel barrows being filled by the team on the compost heap, then Mel exacting high QC standards to remove large sticks and other objects from the compost and finally transferring it into large sacks ready for moving to its new home. Emma made amazing Muffins to celebrate. Thank you. Then a final picture near the pig pen. Can you see a 200 being formed ? Amazing work ๐Ÿ‘
