Keep plants alive in dry weather. ( but access to water is essential).

Evening watering in Buccleuch Gardens .

Unfortunately additional watering of the new wildflower beds at St Mary’s Church didn’t happen as the handle of the outside tap skittered away and disappeared into the darkness before any water could be drawn .

Off to one of our favourite locations tonight where manager Danielle always has good plans to make best use of GoodGym!

This evening we were helping to clean and put away the camping equipment from a trip to the New Forest. It's a more in-tents workout than you might imagine, getting into a collapsed tent to sweep up and then working as a team to roll the giant tent into a bag! Watch us in action here: https://www.instagram.com/reel/DNgluPNI-NJ/?igsh=MXZhYXNjZWJ2ZnpyNw==

More tent cleaning, some leaflet cutting and some happy group photos before running back off into the darkening evening!

..... help young plants establish deeper roots and thrive and ensure that older plants that are less drought tolerant survive.

…… keep our GG Richmond sponsored plots in Buccleuch Gardens on the Thames Path blooming and beautiful.

….help the flowers in the mini wildlife meadows and around the War Memorial at St Mary’s church bloom for longer and more abundantly.

..... help plants get through this latest heat wave.

Friday evening twilight watering in Buccleuch Gardens, a high tide meant fewer steps to fill the watering cans and hopefully the rather muddy water will provide some extra nutrients for our plants.
