September has come round and the nights start to draw in again. The hot summer has started to leave us but that was lucky for this evening as we were back to Clapham Common to take off some more top soil as we finish off the wildflower meadow. As the summer was hot and dry, the ground was still pretty hard and everyone had a tough session trying to get their spades through the roots!
It's hard to get through these roots! Said everyone
After running 2.5km there, we split into two groups. One went off to do some fitness with Katie and a lovely yoga for runners session from newly returned Sarah, whilst the other half got digging. After swapping, we then ran back in three groups at different paces. On return we all enjoyed WEEK ONE of our Bake Off Sweetstake - Vix and John H brought us some sweet and savoury biscuit joy. Wahey!

Creating a wildflower haven on Clapham Common
Colour Your Common is the initiative of Clapham Common Management Advisory Committee and aims to create a wildflower haven on Clapham Common where wildlife can flourish and people can picnic, relax, read a book do yoga, or whatever else takes there fancy. It will consist of 2m wide strips planted with indigenous wild flowers, interspersed with bands of mown grass. The project aims to increase biodiversity on the common and create a garden open for all.
