8 Goodgymers met with Helen from Wild Maidenhead to help take back a formerly neglected space in Desborough park.

Weeding a bed and laying bark chip over was the plan and we all cracked on and got it covered.

Too much bark in the end so some left over but plenty of feel good vibes in the setting sun from a warm afternoon.

Today was a mega-planting day at the Community Allotment, and fortunately we had five mega GoodGymers signed up to come and help Our taskowner Sue had left us several trays of seedlings, as well as comprehensive instructions on where to plant them. Jess and Sol took charge of filling up several boxes with a mix of soil and horse manure, and planting them up with courgettes and cucumbers. Christine planted up the kale and sweet peppers, while Sheila and Sara planted the beans. We finished up by all planting the leeks and beetroot in various locations. After a quick water, despite the rain, we were pleased with our work and look forward to a bumper crop
