It was just a twosome this week as David and Gill took on the 5km run to the Grasmere Community Garden.
Waiting for us there in the wooded area were Keith and Angela with a box of logs and a pair of mallets. Our task: drive the wooden stakes into the ground to mark the edges of the woodland trail. The stakes will later have willow sticks woven between them. We hammered along the trail getting quite the arm workout with the heavyweight hammers!
When we reached the end of the trail it was job done but before we set off back into town Angela presented us with some lovely cupcakes as a thank you!

Community garden for local residents
We aim to provide a hub where residents can come together in an outdoor space and undertake gentle exercise by gardening together. Promote wellbeing across our community for those living alone. We are restoring a small woodland area and developing a wildlife garden alongside a number of vegetable plots where we intend produce grown by the community to be freely available. We are working with the Wildlife Trust and local youth organisations to develop the garden and share growing skills across the generations.
