Lisa from Youth Moves may have been away this week but it wasn't going to stop us from breezing* up the hill for our regular weeding/harvesting session at Urban Escape.

It was a BYO session as we didn't have access to the storage container so we set to with a few trowels that had been dragged up the hill, and the garden forks borrowed from Eastville.

It was Jason's first good deed - welcome - and Matt brought cookies and cake to celebrate 50 good deeds, all during Covid times!

We'll be back next week but should have access to the tools even though Lisa will already have left. Maybe there'll be more chard and monster courgettes, one day the tomatoes may even be ripe!
