What a nice way to spend a couple of hours, taking care of trees at Roots4Life!
Three of us joined a team of volunteers, Martin and Marta having run Parkrun beforehand.
It does something for the soul, looking after nature - not least these lovely fruit trees. Some of them had sadly died so we had to fell them (yes, I did shout "Geronimo" when I pushed mine over). The others needed some TLC, with some pruning, weeding, watering, cardboarding and composting!
We'll be back in the autumn for a follow up session and we can see how our trees are getting on!
Great to spend time with you guys and to meet you Martin - see you next week at the social.
