Hi Ho, Hi Ho, its off to work we go!
Tonight 7 GoodGymers ran or cycled 6km to support Marlpit Community Garden.
Organisers Tish & Mark met us at the gates with 7 wheelbarrows loaded with wood chip.
We were lead through the allotments past beautiful sunflowers and apple trees, to an area 250m away to unload the wood chip onto a new path.
Winds chimes whistled a happy tune as we made regular shuttle runs of wood chip, walking approx 3-4km across the evening.
After an hour we were rewarded with juicy red apples to choose from, even Snow White would have been tempted!

Tonight 19 GoodGymers ran 6km to Mousehold Health to help support the biodiversity in this natural habitat.
It's a regular and popular task on the GG Norwich calender lead by Will the local warden, who provided tools and a gave us a historical background on this famous site.
We split into 2 groups, covering a wide area pulling up bracken to allow heather and other plant species to grow. We also used 5 pitch forks to clear the area of a former chapel ready for a Heritage Open Day History Walk taking place this weekend. See the booking link if you are interested in attending.
We also celebrated the runners, volunteers and cheerleaders, who took to the streets of the city centre for Run Norwich 10km yesterday! Nice one team.
After a swift hours work it was time to bid farewell. We will be back again for more conservation work in the next month.

This evening was Elizabeth H's 700th GoodGym deed, what an incredible woman.
We visited Aslake Community Growers. One of the corners had been neglected, so our task was to start to clear it, with the main focus being removing the wire fencing and ivy.
The time went quick but we got a lot done. We finished the evening with some birthday cake.

We visited Wensum Park again to continue the work we started last week.
We finished clearing the 12 star sign flower beds. Some needed old roots digging out, lavender cut back, stones removing and some just a complete turnover of the soil.
They are now pretty much ready to be planted.
Well done everyone, we'll have to return later in the year to see how it has flourished over the summer.

This evening 12 GoodGymers broke their Wensum Park virginity as we visited there for the first time.
Congratulations to Rose for completing her 100th GoodGym deed!
Also a big welcome to Josie who was partaking in her first good deed.
The task in hand was to dig over so unused flowerbeds so they can be planted with new flowers etc.
Each flower bed already has a different star sign stone in front of it, so the plan will be to full it with flowers that relate to each colour in relation to the star sign.
