I 'potted' up at Bath Organic Garden on our monthly visit to find Aaron and Cosmo already hard at work on one of the beds. Apparently volunteers are welcomed from 10am (if we can get there).
Our job this time was to rake in some green compost (fast growing nitrogen-rich plants) into some of the plots. But first we had to clear them of stones and weeds. We also found a lot of potatoes - which could make a tasty meal for growers if baked in their home-made oven.
It was a beautiful day and we made good progress. Soon it was time for tea. Organiser Dan supplied some extraordinary biscuits from his skiing holiday. Licorice and strawberry jammy dodgers anyone?
Special mention to Cosmo on his 99th mission - I wonder if he'll dye his hair a new colour to celebrate his 100th.
Bath Organic Group, or BOG, was set up in 1986 to promote sustainable, local food production and organic gardening in and around Bath.

It will keep the site neat and tidy with a view to welcoming the swimmers of Bath once again.
