Grotto TO GO

Bath Report written by Meyrick Williams (He/Him)

It's definitely summer now, after months of trying we've finally had some nice warm days and evenings to enjoy. This evening was no exception.

Five GoodGymmers arrived in the always beautiful Sydney Gardens to help clear away weeds form a really interesting area that the organisers would like to open up to the public. Cosmo, Stephen, Helen, Vicky and Meyrick were the team.

Did you know there were grottos under Sydney Gardens? Apparently back in 1794 a roof was built to enclose a natural reservoir at the top by the tennis courts. There are to gates blocking entry to this area, which as far as I'm concerned is a grotto, and the organisers want to clear the area to allow the public to view inside.

Weeding we are good at, and we made quick work of it. There will be a lot more to do to clear enough soil from the doorways in order to get to a place where the public can view through the doors into the mysteries of the grottos within, but this was a start.

Well done GoodGymmers, when this is complete we can say we helped with this.

Never the bind weed shall meet

Bath Report written by Helen Conner (she/her)

6 Goodgymers meet the team at Bath Preservation Trust to help remove the bind weed from the Southcot children's cementry.

At first glance it looked like we would barely make a dent. But after a good hours graft, the team cleared a huge area to stop the bind weed from climbing up trees, walls, grass and graves.

We also welcomed Fe for the first time to Goodgym Bath. Welcome Felicia we hope to see you again soon!

A prune above the rest

Bath Report written by Helen Conner (she/her)

The sun was shining, the flowers were in full bloom, the weeds and hedgegrows had grown rapidly and the garden needed a good water.

Arriving at Alice park the team set to work at pruning the overgrown hedgerow by the bug house. This consisted mostly of ivy and sycamore tree.

With just one hour for the task, the team spent about 50 minutes pruning and 10 minutes chopping up the clippings to sort into compost and non composting piles.

We welcomed first timer Vicky; we hope you enjoyed your time with us and we look forward to seeing you again soon.

I'll alpaca that away for you

Bath Report written by Helen Conner (she/her)

4 Goodgymers made their way to Bath City farm armed with gardening gloves. Our task should we agree to accept it was to join the alpacas in their enclosure to shovel up their droplets and chop down the nettles and plants.

Task accepted, the team mounted the enclosure (they couldn't find the key!) and began the great British clear up. Watched by passerbys and children visitors they generated 2 wheelbarrows full of weeds and 1 wheelbarrow full of droppings.

Great job team! Although the alpacas were a little disappointed that you didn't feed them :)

Between a thorn and a hard place

Bath Report written by Helen Conner (she/her)

Kate and Helen made their way to St John's Court to help the residents with their garden. Armed with a few small garden implements we were tasked with digging up weeds from a flower bed.

It looked like an easy task, but Kate kept getting her hair caught in the thorns above and Helen could barely get the fork into the ground as it was so hard.

Tackling the thorny bushes above, we cleared them out of the way and most of the weeds in the bed ready for planting.
We look forward to going back again next month to help the residents.

A wheelie good time was had by all

Bath Report written by Helen Conner (she/her)

On a humid Sunday morning, 5 Goodgymers went to Syndey gardens to help the gardens community group. Armed with wheelbarrows and spades we were tasked to shovel sand into the wheelbarrows and deliver to the sandpits.

There were 2 huge ton bags to empty, but the team were confident that they could empty these within the hour.

As we filled the sandpits the local children were keen to help and spread the sand around.

The time flew by and a few minutes before the end of the session the bags were empty! Super impressive by the team. Well done everyone!
