Loosening the screw
Friday 26th September
Written by David Head
A lovely day greeted us at the farm. Today we tackled a large area bordering the walled garden. With brooms and shovels we cleared the area and wheel barrowed up the debris to take to the compost. It was a sweeping success even with a screw loose. Then off for a coffee to start our days🌟
On the edge if reason

A lovely morning greeted good gym at the farm. Assembling our tools from possibly the most organised shed I had seen we deployed to the front section to clean borders and sweep up leaves. We made a lovely edge and tidied the yard. Then a final photo and then a coffee to kick start our weekends.
Unspring sweep away

Autumn is the perfect time for a spring clean, isn’t it?
A beautiful rainbow on the way to the farm showed we may be in for sunshine this morning, although we were all in waterproofs just in case.
Connell saw us coming and asked if we could weed and tidy around the front and side of the reception building - weed love to! (See what I did there?)
Hoeing and sweeping and scooping and scraping, the transformation was great to see. And then coffee - perfect.
Compost friday
Friday 5th September

A lovely day greeted us at the farm. Today we had a task to move compost from the heap to an accessible area to be used to bring this haven into even more beauty. Adopting a conveyer wheel barrow system we made a wheely big indent into the pile. A final photo and off to the cafe to contemplate the day. 👏
Not gutted

A nice morning at the farm greeted the cheery goodgym folk. Of to the shed we went to pick up our tools and a dash to get a wheelbarrow. Today we cleared the willow leaves from the front and sides of the cafe area. Sweeping aside any Friday morning cobwebs are gut instinct led us to also clear the gutter of leaves. Thank you microbiome . After depositing the debris in the compost a final picture by Mr stick and off we went for a local coffee to slowly digest our way into the weekend
Best step forward

A lovely morning greeted 4 GGers at the glorious farm. Today we tackled the edges by some steps that seem to provide an excellent ecosystem for weed growth. With hoes, brushes and a spring in our step we cleared the borders, brushed up the detritis and composted what we could. Proper job✨️
