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.

Last night, Alice organised a line dancing social at Left Bank. Dancing to country music...what more could you want on a Tuesday evening?
Looks like fun!

Tonight we had a lovely big group who all headed to Meanwood Valley Farm to help the team with a variety of jobs. The main job was to prepare a large area ready for tomato plants. Apparently they need soft ground, up to 50cm deep in order to thrive which was good to know, as I prepare to plant my own in the coming days. We used a large variety of tools including a wheel hoe which was very satisfying to use! This area is now ready for the plants to go in.
Our resident compost turners did their work as usual, Rachel & Helen always volunteer for this smelly job & Shannen joined them tonight, thanks ladies :)
As we always do, we got sent away with a variety of organic veggies including beetroot, radishes & rhubarb. Delicious!
Welcome to newcomers Billy & Katie, we hope to see you again soon.
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

This evening we headed up to Bedford Fields to help out them & Community Streets. Lydia, Helen & I lined planters, Jason, Alice & Jake put posts in & levelled the ground & Analise, Joao & Erica did some wriggling at front! Apparently, it's a good workout!
Great work team!

Tonight was our spring social & what great weather for it!
We ran straight to OWLS allotments where we spent around 40 minutes weeding & moving compost. We worked fast so that we could get to the park for our game of rounders. We got into two teams of 9/10 people & started the game. I don't think we 100% stuck to the rules but no one cares, we just have fun with it! We all had 3 bats each & I'm proud to say our team won with a score of 10 & a half to 8 & a half rounders. Well done gang!
We then headed to the pub for food & drinks. Poor Shannen got asked for ID so couldn't buy her alcohol free beer (yes really)...I'd take it is a compliment Shannen!
Welcome to Lydia on her first session, we hope to see you again soon. Thanks also to Erica for bringing everyone she knows to GoodGym:)
Thanks for a great evening all!
