Cargo a go go!

Islington Report written by Simon Fitzmaurice

On Monday evening, Area Activator Simon met with Paul at the Arsenal Community Hub, Benwell Road, for a dynamic warm up and a nice chatty 1.3 mile run to Thornhill Square Gardens. We ran down to Caledonian Road, and into the dark park to meet with resident gardening expert Anna by the community tool shed.

Matt and Eslam caught up with us all, and helped with bringing out wheelbarrows, shovels and forks for our session. The objective was to transfer a pile of donated wood chip over to the rose beds and flower patches towards the south of the park. Paul and Matt used the wheel barrows, while Simon and Eslam used a nice electric e-bike and a collection of hardy sacks to drop off the piles of chip.

Within 45 minutes, the four of us made a significant dent in the huge pile of wood chip, and successfully filled in many patches of exposed soil, ready for the Winter months. Great job everyone!

Newly listed session with Thornhill Square Gardens!
