It was due to be everyones favourite task....painting!! the downpour of rain that started as we gathered outside Glass Mill put a stop to that. After a couple of texts back and forth, we had a new plan of action:
- clear area of driveway for wildflower seeds to be sown
- clear overgrown weeds from fence line (can weeds ever not be overgrown?)
- clear weeds from paths and flower beds
- untangle bindweed
We divided into groups to conquer the tasks and battled with the rain that was still pouring down! A bit of rain doesn't stop GoodGymers but by the time we left waterproof jackets had certainly been tested to their limits!
On Saturday we're heading to Marsha Phoenix Trust for some post-parkrun gardening.

Clear out overgrown garden to make it safe
Saint Swithun's Church Garden has been unloved however we are hoping to make it an open space for people to come and enjoy. To make it either a community garden or for people to use for as part of hall hire. It's a wonderful space that can be used to serve the community... But it needs to be cleared. If people do have their own gardening tools that would be ideal.

Lewisham
The garden is a resource for local residents and a green space in an urban sprawl.
