Report written by Rachel Henry
Nine GoodGym Greenwichers joined the Friends of Plumstead Common Allotments last night for a satisfying session of clearing an abandoned allotment.
After a hilly-er than expected run we met Dan who had lots of tools at the ready and armed with with strimmers, loppers and sheers, we spent 40 minutes tackling the overgrowth. We lopped off as many brambles as we could and strimmed the long grass (#thinktick 😉) and gradually the pile of cuttings grew and the space felt clearer.
Well done team - the plot is now one step closer to being brought back into use and we got a decent workout while doing it!
A big thank you to the Friends of Plumstead Common Allotments for having us along. We’ll likely be back to continue the job!
Coming up...
On saturday we have helping at Maryon Wilson Community Garden
On sunday we have maintenance at Westcombe Woodlands
Next Wednesday we're leafleting for the Library of Things in Woolwich.
Until next time! ☺️

Parkrun only happens when enough people step forward to help, so let’s show them the GoodGym spirit!
