Tonight at GoodGym there was hope in the air about the world cup semi-final....

Before the disappointment of the England game though, we had a great session at Meanwood Valley Farm where we weeded four different areas. Andy, the Head Grower always says what an impact we make in such a short time. These summer sessions have such a great vibe & everyone was on top form.

Welcome to Eliza & Hal tonight, we hope to see you again soon.

Next week, we'll grab those summer drinks after the session. The pubs were far too busy for it tonight.

What a lovely evening! In very humid weather, Helen led us up to Bedford Fields with a bit of Japanese style slow jogging...we got in formation & recreated the craze (& felt like proper wally's).

We met the rest of the gang at Bedford & got to work clearing the stones from the path. We then weeded the edges to finish the job.

We spent a lot of time chatting tonight...it was too hot to work. That's our excuse anyway!

Well done to Rachael on her 105th task tonight.

Last night, 3 GoodGymers helped OWLS by delivering their leaflets to their service users around Headingley, Burley & Kirkstall.

Thanks to Helen for mapping the routes & to Alan for joining our session.

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.

If you know, you know...

I love summer GoodGym nights when the weather is good! Tonight the Leeds gang headed to Beckhill Community Garden to help clear a load of weeds in the orchard area. We cleared a large space & it really opened the space up. It's now ready for scouts & school children to come into the space without getting nettled.

My little dogs provided cuddles & entertainment which I think everyone enjoyed.

Well done to Joao who completed his 10th good deed last night & to Jason on his 90th! Amazing! We also said goodbye to Ross tonight, who is going on his travels. Good luck Ross!
