Last night’s GoodGym mission in Roehampton included a change of task, some speedy brush work and one dimly lit fence!🖌️

We were there to lend a hand to Shared Roots, a community food-growing group bringing people together through growing food, connecting with nature and creating a greener, more connected community. 🌱

The original plan took a bit of a detour when we discovered that the artist designing the beautiful artwork for the fence was about to head off on holiday. With the clock ticking, we needed to get a coat of paint on the fence as a matter of urgency, ready for the artistry to follow!

So, Moly, Preya and I rolled up our sleeves, grabbed our brushes and got stuck in. Painting in the dark wasn’t quite the ideal artistic setting, but we were up for the challenge. Fortunately, a good chat and a bit of teamwork meant the time flew by, and we managed to get the majority of the fence painted. Hopefully, it’ll soon be transformed into something special. 🎨

And there’s more to come! We’ve got several upcoming sessions at Shared Roots, where we’ll be helping to plant trees and support this lovely community growing project. 🌳 Check out these three planting sessions
