Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Lucinda
Taskowners Emily and Margaret greeted us on approach, at Approach Gardens - a lovely community food garden in the heart of Bethnal Green, home to bees and frogs. They helpfully divvied up the various tasks that needed doing between our large group. These included:
This was a task where we split into little sub teams, working away in our own areas, wheelbarrows full of foliage going back and forth throughout the hour. It was only at the end we could stand back and appreciate how much had been achieved. Well done all!
A big shout out to Emma for completing her first Goodgym task!
We also said goodbye (for now!) to Kat and Asad, as they move to the Chilterns. Some of us headed to The Camel post task to toast them with a drink. You will both be very missed (un-frog-ettable some may say...) but I'm sure our paths will cross again soon.
its turned an area previously used for dog waste into a beautiful garden and wildlife sanctuary, with food growing beds that help everyone grow and share great food to feed their families, as well as tackling loneliness and providing a space for local schools to teach kids about nature. It brings together the fantastic range of residents surrounding the garden in a way nothing else has, and has won awards from the council and Britain in Bloom. we're passionate and 'hands on' volunteers but sometimes need a hand with the heaviest tasks so grateful for any help you can give!
