We were joined by a few local residents to help keep Holgate CommunityGarden looking good. We cleared a lot of weeds from the long bed and planted some tulip bulbs. We also planted crocus and daffodil bulbs around the trees that we had cleared around last month. Jane used the ladder to the all of the remaining apples down and we left them any that weren't claimed in one of the beds for people to take.

A beautiful morning in Danesmead Wood saw a bumper turnout of GoodGymmers to clear another area of nettle roots and turn the soil in preparation for planting some wild seeds. We did this task last year for an area next to where we were working and the flowers have established themselves really well.

With so many volunteers we cleared a much bigger area than initially planned and also fitted in some woodchip barrowing.

Post task, Jude has made us some amazing chocolate squares which were definitely earned.
