Tree transplantation

York Report written by York runner

Nine of us GG Yorkies met Gordon for another task at the King's Path Wildflower Meadow in Acomb. Kudos to Ellie who brought along Stewart for his first ever GG task - give him some cheers! Also well done to Max who brought along a friend who lives very close to the task so she was roped in as well - thanks Laura for your help! Thanks also to Michal who brought along some of his own tools.

We split into 2 teams each side of the fence. One team started to dig up the self-seeded trees whilst the other team started digging holes around the edge of the wildflower meadow. We soon took delivery of several trees over the fence and planted them in record time. We moved and replanted approximately 15 trees in under 40 minutes. We were also joined by a local councillor who was interested in the project and our progress so far. We look forward to watching these young trees grow over the coming years.

In the process we managed to tick off several of our January Bingo challenge tasks, including muddy shoes (see photo - although some had already been cleaned off by the time I took the photo).

As is customary on a Friday, we headed to a local café for some well-earned refreshments.

Snow more compost

York Report written by York runner

4 hardy GGers braved the snow and ice traversing to the BIG skip at West Bank Park. Donned with many layers they set about climbing into the skip to dig, rake & shovel compost leftovers into bags. As we generated energy & heated up, excess clothes were discarded and those left on were coated with a lovely layer of mud in true GG style. 30 bags were filled, ready to go to our Tiny Forest. 1 hour later the skip was bare with a squeaky clean bottom. Good team work.

The Remainders of the Day

York Report written by York runner

Another month, another booksale at the library. We enjoyed the usual task of putting out more books, taking our time to nosy around the wide range of subjects - with Leanne spotting a familiar view in a book on England's cathedrals.

We were also entrusted with picking out the least sellable books to be boxed up for salvage, leading to a discussion on what the good people of York may or may not enjoy reading (history fans should definitely get themselves down to Tang Hall for some bargains).

This one is definitely too sticky ! Ellie

Result: Everything set out for a bumper booksale and more valuable funds for Tang Hall library.

Rake mine a pint of beans please!

York Report written by Nicola Gover

Those of us who'd done the morning's mission headed first for lunch at Hello Mallow, where baked beans are served in a glass, and Lucy discovered this does not mean they're enjoyable to chug (Down it! Down it!). After filling ourselves with a hearty farmer's brunch, we cycled along the bumpy riverbank track to our field where we met David & co, who had been working hard already since 10, and were joined by Penny and Ellie.

Half the field had already been raked into neat rows, ready for the baler to come in a few days, and our task was to finish the job. Armed with rakes and pitchforks, we split into smaller groups and advanced the rows rapidly and mostly in a straight line. Stopping only the retrieve lost tennis balls and wait for frogs to retreat. Sadly, some unforecast drizzle made the hopes of the hay drying out quickly fade, having already rescheduled this task across the entire of July!

In no time at all we were done, making neat tractor turning circles at the car end of the field, and quickly scooping up a freshly mowed section. Some of us headed off for cafe #2 while the rest of the team dispersed, another job well done.
