Hackney city farm needed some help preparing top soil from.... A big pile of pig poop! We were not to be deterred by this and quickly got stuck in sifting out the big stones which currently make the soil unusable and quickly developed a system. As the darkness of the evening set in we bagged up 7 sacks of premium hand sifted top soil for the farm.

Our top crew of Goodgym folk (including first timers Poppy and Lucy- welcome!) joined us at the wonderful Hackney City Farm on a bright Autumnal evening. Our objective for the session was to fill a transit van full of rotted down green waste and branches, destined to travel to another farm in Kent. A mighty job for most volunteers, but easily handled by our team, with a little bit of umph and some logistics! We even found time to fill up about 6 more bags, ready for the next excursion before the sun went down.

To celebrate, we popped over to the Seabright Arms on Hackney Road for some much appreciated refreshments.

Well done everyone!
