Ross Hickman went on a group run

Tonight we learned all about Jubz's thug life...he claims he was breaking up a fight last night but who knows?!
We headed to one of our favourite places, Meanwood Farm, where after our usual hello to the animals, we were happy to learn that the cows have a home for life at the farm. Thank goodness, the alternative doesn't bear thinking about!
Our usual compost turners were as keen as always, thanks for volunteering Rachael, Katie & Helen. Another team headed to the polytunnel to get the area ready for planting, with Christian & Jason getting started with the broadforks & Ross, Lydia, Katie and Analise weeding. Lastly, Jubz, Adam & I filled wheelbarrows of compost for the tunnel.
Another great evening, thanks all.

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

Tonight, we mainly stood in amazement at Christian's speedy digging skills!
We were digging trenches at Bedford Fields , filling them with logs and garden waste to create mounds. This is a permaculture technique that uses decaying wood as a base to create nutrient-rich, moisture-retaining garden beds. The buried wood acts like a sponge, absorbing water during wet periods and releasing it during dry spells. As the wood breaks down over several years, it provides a consistent, slow-release nutrient source.
It was a freezing night but we managed to keep warm (ish) with our hard work.
Thanks for coming out in the cold everyone:)

I drove home tonight thinking what a joy you all are! Our sense of community was strong tonight with giggles, dancing, hugs, oh & a bit of running & gardening too!
We met Beth at Bedford Fields & one group got to work doing some border clearing up the path & another group laying cardboard & woodchip around trees on the newly cleared beds. It all looked loads better by the time we'd finished.
We finished January strong, smashing our January challenge targets with 53 good deeds & 540 kms so far...& there's still 3 days to go. Well done team!
Congratulations to Jason & Christian who both completed their 70th good deed tonight & to Helen for her 240th!!! Thanks for all you do for GoodGym Leeds!
Welcome to Erica & Ross who joined us for the first time tonight, it was great to meet you both.
