Jeepers Sleepers

Bristol Report written by Melanie Young (she/her)

Urgent wild garlic protection awaited GoodGym Bristol this week with a maior operation planned to stoo the Council accidentally mowing the wild garlic before it could seed and spread.

Sleepers, that had made the raised beds before the big re-build (and accompanying big compost shift), were being moved from one edge of the park to the other with well-laden wheelbarrows and hefty shifting of the wood and a careful plan (make it up as you go along) to create a wall between the cutting grads and non-cutting garlic. Oh, and deadheading the daffodils in the tyre stacks where we'd been called on for emergency bulb-planting so theres space for the to grow and daffodils to prepare for next Spring.

Finishing off with lemon balm and something else tea and homemade nettle and dandelion cake (all foraged from the park and GoodGym were away again, more chat at Workout and Vaguely Northern Darren using his amazing video and audio skills to record the scene for all time.

Large Hebron Debrider

Bristol Report written by Melanie Young (she/her)

Does a yellow warning of rain put GoodGym Bristol off an outdoor task? We're made of tougher stuff than that - at least, some of us are!

We took the opportunity to venture back to Hebron Burial Ground to progress further towards the wall that we knew was begin the brambles and, it turns out, elder tree.

The running group were already making great progress when the walkers arrived and got stuck in alongside Gerry and Cat. As Freya amazed us all as, after her head had a close "brush" with some brambles, she fought back by pulling HUGE bramble branches from the maze of stalks - "once we chop, we can't stop". Caroline declared to job of carrying the tarpaulin of choppage over and onto the compost pile to be too skilled for her, having seen Richard and Vaguely Northern Darren's professional approach, whilst Jason found someone's past treasures deep under the brambles - hopefully that person now has a place to call home.

David and Melanie took a delicate approach to clear around a gravestone whilst discussing their human barometer skills to know when rain was on the way.

After so much chopping, we weren't quite followed home by the Police chopper (helicopter) but it was hovering over Redcliffe for a long time whilst we chatted over pots of tea/cappuccino (not the red version made of tea?!)/shandy/cider and the lack of plans for Easter.

Hope everyone sleeps well after a good dose of fresh air and NO RAIN AT ALL!

A chop, a snip and a stump

Bristol Report written by Melanie Young (she/her)

Another beautifully sunny evening for our Group walk/run, this time to a new-to-us green space in Bedminster that was losing the battle with brambles.

Some had heeded the warnings of thorniness and were in long sleeves and trousers, some (especially Ed) decided a vest and shorts were up to the task. Brave.

It wasn't a first good deed for anyone but Faduma was back for her second and Ramani, in her new red t-shirt, was back for number three.

We had short tools, long tools and in-between tools, depending on how close to the brambles and nettles people were prepared to go. The runners with Tim and Freya had already made good progress to remove the first pile of brambles by the time the walkers arrived and Harsheh specialised in tarpaulin filling, dragging and emptying, somehow managing to rake bramble stems - sounds like a good workout plan!

We made sure there were no birds nesting where we were chopping and it was lovely to see one of the neighbours who'd previously tried to keep the area under control.

With the main runner group having finished the initial clearing of the middle patch (including a pesky sycamore sapling and a final push on the second patch revealing a dumped rucksack that had become home to many, many woodlice, it was time to draw stumps and head back.

We finished the journey back with a beautiful sunset - happy days!
