Just pooping down to the farm...

Wednesday 25th June

Written by Laura

Last night we headed down to Meanwood Valley Farm for the first time in years. We had two teams at work tonight: Team 1, Lydia, Katie & Kawan clearing the garden & Christian & Lydia wheeling the vegetation to the the compost heap. Then there was Team Number 2, Kat, Katie, Jubz & Jason who were moving compost from one bin to the next. Not a hugely popular job as the compost was full of number twos from the farm animals! A smelly job indeed, but Jubz still managed a smile. Well done guys! At least you got to say hello to a friendly goat :)

Are you a stick person or a stone person?

Wednesday 18th June

Written by Laura

That was the question Eb was asking this evening, providing some light entertainment! Tonight we had a new task at All Hallows Church where Rainbow Junction is held. We were tasked with levelling the ground, weeding and painting the gates. This was a big job and we'll have to go back to do more but we made a great start, helping to ensure the garden is safer for people who use it.

Welcome back to Eb tonight and congratulations to Kat for completing her 80th good deed!

Four GoodGymers helped out with the Green Fair in Woodhouse this weekend.
Laura & Lynn helped set up the marquees and Helen went along after the fair had opened to ride the Climate Action Leeds bike to power their juice stand. Beth organised the whole thing! What a great event. Good work team!

Dig like a Badger

Wednesday 11th June

Written by Laura

There's no better feeling than a hot summer GoodGym evening! Tonight we all get nettled at Bedford Fields, weeding all the front ready for the Green Fair on Saturday. Jubz & Alice were instructed to 'dig like a badger' by Beth when digging out wood chip! Khara & Megan were troopers & entertained some children that were at the garden by letting them help paint some wooden slats & Christian gave them a lift through the garden in a wheelbarrow! They were delighted!

We finished off by eating some raspberries in the garden & running back to Heart.

Welcome to Charlotte & Robbie on their first session, we hope to see you again soon.
