GoodGym returned to the Bowthorpe community garden to lend some more help on thursday evening. We were soon put to work with Stephen, Ian, Elizabeth and Mark being joined by visiting GoodGymers Eva and Frank from Hackney. Even a holiday can't stop the GoodGym spirit!

We started by clearing a wildflower meadow to help prepare it for next year apart from Ian who felt compelled to finish a job he had started two weeks ago creosoting a pergola before joining everyone else in the meadow. Once the meadow was cleared we finished by giving some lavender bushes a much needed trim. As time was up the rain began so for once we managed to dodge the worst of the showers and we left some happy volunteers, I'm sure we will be back to Bowthorpe soon!
