Tonight, in the freezing cold we ran down to Meanwood Farm for our first visit of the year. After admiring the beautiful donkeys, cows and sheep who were in the barn to keep warm, we split into two groups for two tasks. One group headed into the greenhouse for what Katie described as lifting, cleaning, emptying and rearranging equipment (or words to that effect)! The second group headed to the apple trees to lay cardboard around the trees ready for wood chipping. Lydia, Helen and I then grabbed a wheelbarrow each and were tasked with moving wood chip up to the trees. This was quite a good workout lugging those up the hill & it kept us warm (kinda) on this very cold night.

Our group have a free the donkey's campaign in the works, as the donkey's only reside at the farm during the winter, they're on Blackpool beach all summer :(

Well done for coming out in this weather all! Welcome to Jess & Ella, it was great to meet you both.
