Turfing out the weeds

Newcastle Report written by Newcastle runner

The title of the report was kindly gifted by Emily.

Welcome Robert to your first Goodgym session. Definite commitment with traveling over 13 miles by public transport.

We were joined by some little helpers, who took a keen interest in the world of worms.

We definitely had to put some welly into this task.

Our tasks today was to dig some flower beds to make them wider. We had to be careful to not remove the beautiful French lavender or any of the wild rose bushes (which may have happened one or twice before).

The roar of laughter of being asked, "have you made any progress" with the first dig was warmly welcomed.

Lots of warmth on this mission (both literally and metaphorically). Some roars of laughter and some nicely received compliments.

Next Goodgym session is on Monday 29th May. Meet at Stepney bank stables at 18:15.

Littering is trashy

Newcastle Report written by Newcastle runner

Thank you to Greening Wingrove for organising this event. It was so satisfying picking up tiny pieces of rubbish. Litteraly, two hours of collecting litter and the streets are still full of rubbish. There was all sorts. A bank card, a scarf, a rug, and a box of match sticks to name a few. While we couldn't pick it all up, every little bit counted. Greening Wingrove meet most Mondays for a local litter pick.

Tomorrow, you can join Louise at Hodgkin park:

Hop into spring

Newcastle Report written by Newcastle runner

We were planting hops, which is often used as a flavouring in beer. It is also regarded as a healing plant for the nervous system. After we had dug a suitable space, we all lent a hand to help carry the hops and carefully position them into the ground. Hopefully we will see the hops climbing up the trellis in no time.

We were set the task of edging some of the flower beds and turning over the soil. Greening wingrove and Friends of Nuns Moor Park would like to plant several types of currants in the flower beds. Their idea is that everyone who would like to, can pick currants from the plants, and make a delicious crumble.

It is amazing what you can see when you look around. Hiding in the corner of the bike garden, is a beautiful pond area, with bird feeders and insect homes. The corner is dedicated in memory of councillor and anti-racism campaigner Nigel Todd.

It is so lovely to see the changes in Nuns Moor Park and to see people investing so much time into it. We will definitely have more sessions with Greening Wingrove and Friends of Nuns Moor Park, who are all a lovely group of people who are trying to improve the space.

We can see clearly now the mud has gone!

Newcastle Report written by Newcastle runner

Six GoodGymers met with Urban Green for a Sunday morning task at Hodgkin Park.

  In true GoodGym spirit and not wanted to axe the task, @Paul rose to the challenge of tackling the removal of fence posts.

  While @Paul tackled the fence posts, the other Goodgymers got to work on bringing new life into the cobbles and mosaic tiles. The techniques involved a lot of trowel and error.

  During the tea break, we were joined by local councillor Rob Higgins. Keep an eye out for a new park run coming to the West End.

  After the tea break there was no mosaicking about, and we all chipped in to reveal more of the beautiful cobbles. One mosaic tile was covered by mud and was lovingly washed to reveal the true colours.

  If you're wanting to change your career Urban Green are looking for a ranger and a community gardener. Have a look at their website for more information.

  Next Goodgym mission is on Monday 13th March. 18:15 at Stepney bank stables. All are welcome.
