Last night's session was back with our friends Jean and Annick of Windmill Gardens fame.

First up though we were delighted to welcome back John who had been away from all things GG for a short time (just the 5 years then) but was once again back with us - welcome back John!

A nice easy run up Brixton Hill for Michael, AA Yianny and John where we were met by the Windmill Gardens team and our intrepid walkers - Marie-Noelle and Paul who were already hard at work chopping back the growth along the back fence.

The remaining team were put to work on the wheat patch pulling out the rather unsuccessful harvest from this year and getting it ready and turned over to receive the next crop. We were lucky to be surrounded by wafting scents of mint throughout making it a lovely evening of helping out.

Check out the before and after pics - plenty of work got done, plenty of getting fit and doing good as well.

Thanks to all and I look forward to seeing you next time!

Brixton Windmill
A little bit of history in central Brixton!

The Friends of Windmill Gardens (FoWG) were formed in 2003 with three aims: * to get the Grade II listed Brixton Windmill restored and opened for public visits – in 2002 it had been put on English Heritage's buildings at risk register; * to make Windmill Gardens park a more welcoming space for local people; * to have a new education centre at the windmill. Windmill Gardens gained a Green Flag Community Award in 2015 and we have just been judged again so our fingers are crossed that we will retain the award for the next two years.
