9 GoodGymer's tidied up a community garden

We were glad to welcome Joe P back for a second time in 2023, and Rachel back from a long break too!

No one was keen to run lead, so we all set off together, and after a brief chat about which the best fish and chip shop is in Chelmsford (Martin and Jenny suggested the one in Writtle), we headed into our task to find Fay, Sallyann and our task owner Tess.

Our task was to improve the space for families to use as a community garden. Richard joined Fay and Sallyann in cleaning the green portacabin, Rachel chose the pea planting box to clear, and Martin, Jenny and the two Joes helped to clear the prickly hedges.

Well done everyone, the garden looked so much better after our trip!

We jogged back a slightly different route to take us over 5km.

Next week we have our super leaflet drop, see you there!
