End of Season at Belle Isle

Tuesday 30th September

Written by Craig Barber (He/him)

This evening was our final task for the year at Belle Isle Park. We were joined by a few others from the local area and task owner Joe, to finish off the digging and grass-clearing work ready for a new wildflower area. A nice warm evening, a lovely social task and some good exercise!

This week we were back at Belle Isle Park, continuing the groundwork for perennial seeding. A pretty physical evening, lots of digging and earth-moving, but great be be joined by the community and having a laugh as we worked! A highlight at the end was getting to play with the batfinder! lots of the winged friends out!

We'll be back at the park for a final time this year next week - a task and a cheeky drink after!

Tuesday 5th August

Tonight, 5 GoodGymers were back in Belle Isle Park, joined by Joe and a small group of the local community. We spent the evening gathering seeds, ensuring a good wildflower spread in future areas. We had a very relaxed time, the nature of the task meant we could chat a bit more and catch up on the gossip!
