On Tuesday, we had a great turnout, with 17 GoodGymers coming together (at a distance!) to help out at the Transition garden. We also welcomed first timer Francesca and celebrated Milly's 100 deeds milestone!
With lots to be done, we all chose our tools and set to work, chopping, pruning the hedges and pulling out brambles. Lots of work needed, but they were no match for us and we soon had a huge pile of trimmings and cuttings to show for our efforts!
It's true, time does fly when you're having fun - an hour down and we could have kept going, but the call of dinner, or a take-away pint and the fading sunshine meant we called it time for today.
This task supported
In February 2011, local children planted 21 fruit trees to form a Community Orchard in the overgrown tennis courts in the Lammas Enclosure, between Lammas and Walpole Parks. Volunteers from Ealing Transition have taken on the management of the area and preservation of natural habitats. The residents call on our own GoodGym volunteers from time to time when they have specific tasks that need extra pairs of hands.
