Another great evening spent at Beckhill Community Garden tonight.
We ran from Heart to meet Lyn for litter picking, laying cardboard & spreading lots of wood chip over a large area. We finished off with a bit of weeding.
Happy belated birthday to Lyn!
Tonight we said goodbye to Elspeth who's moving to Nottingham, good luck & we'll miss you!
Welcome to Dan who joined us for the first time in years tonight .

Tonight we named 3 pigs...Laura, Helen & Jason, the girl pig with an identity crisis. They're the new resident pigs at Meanwood Valley Farm & we hoped naming them may prolong their lives.. here's hoping!
We had a good run and then had 3 jobs, weeding the beds for winter vegetables, turning compost (we now have professional status with this task) & bringing woodchip down to cover new compost.
Fun & games were had involving wheelbarrows & Jubz...I say no more...
Thanks for a great evening all!

What a great night with the GoodGym Leeds gang!
In 30 degrees heat, we braved a short run up to the OWLS allotments. We've not been in a while so it needed some serious weeding but as there was 18 of us we got loads done and it looked so much better when we left! Adam wheeled Jubz around in a wheelbarrow full of insects, hopefully you've not been bitten Jubz!
We then headed back to Heart for a drink, chips and some lovely Indian cakes curtesy of Jubz's mum, thank you! :) The topics of conversation included erm cake & getting ticks in awkward places!
Great work team!

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

Along with two little visitors, tonight the group ran up to Bedford Fields to do various jobs including edge shearing, mulch moving and weeding. It was a big group so we made fast work & got lots done. The two little visitors enjoyed the run but not the gardening as much, but we made it work! They may stay at home in future! Great work all!

Last night was our summer social & so we ran up to Beckett Park to have some fun and games. We got into two teams 'Helen's Hillbillies' & 'Canada' to battle it out with some school sports day type activities! We competed in egg & spoon, 3 legged & sack races & then threw hoops, bean bags & it wouldn't be a summer social without a game of human hungry hippos!! Some highlights were Christian powering ahead in the sack race, Alice & Amy winning the 3 legged race (good team work girls) & Katie falling in the sack race (sorry Katie)! We finished off with a game of rounders and then the final results were in...it was a draw!!
After all the fun, we had a picnic to finish off with a lovely selection of savoury & sweet treats. Thanks all, what a great evening!
Welcome to newcomers Amy & Tracey & congratulations to Katie who has reached 100 good deeds! You're awesome :)
