Two questions were posed tonight:
Is that a cow or a sheep?
Are leaks just big spring onions?
The answers to those questions are as follows: Sheep & No, but they re in the same family!
Tonight, we were at Meanwood Farm for wheel hoeing, planting leaks and weeding. We love it down there and always get a good variety of tasks. Surprisingly though, we weren't asked to turn compost for the first time....Helen's disappointment was palpable.
Another great evening, thanks all.

We are a small charity with limited resources, so jobs like this often fall by the wayside. It helps us to continue to focus on our core work, but also with compost, it means we can have less inputs and save money

What an amazing group we had this evening with 9 newcomers all joining us!
We headed to Bedford Fields for lots and lots of weeding! It was lucky we had 22 people, because for an hour, all we did was pull out the sticky weed & bindweed & although we made a good dent in it, there's always more weeding to do.
We found the strangest thing amongst the weeds, a pair of false teeth! Now that's a new one.
Welcome to James, Joanne, Lukas, Emily, Fabiha, Aden, Abi, James & Deepa! And thanks to Erica for bringing more work colleagues! We hope to see you all again soon.

As Jubz kindly helped me figure out my tent putting up skills in preparation for our camping weekend, the rest of the team got to work on OWLS allotments.
We filled in a hole, weeded large areas & laid some stones. Great work everyone & sorry I only joined in at the end! But at least I now know how to put my tent up! Thank you Jubz :)
Thanks to Helen for meeting the group at Heart & welcome to Aran & Farzad on their first session, we hope to see you again soon.
Thanks also for the pun idea Sarah!!

Nettle stings, berry tasting & weeding were the name of the game last night. We headed up to one of our favourite places, Beckhill Community Garden at the back of Stainbeck United Reformed Church. It's a beautiful space & Lynn has worked wonders with the garden over the last 2 years.
We were weeding & watering & Lynn messaged afterwards saying what a difference we had made. Adam tried a gooseberry for the first time but I don't think he appreciated it! Alice & I both got nettled...now you know you've been to GoodGym if you're stung by something at the end of the evening!
Welcome to Esther on her first session & welcome back to Joanna who has had a long break. We hope to see you all both soon.

It will help this small community garden be summer ready!
