Jo and I dodged the showers at Marston Community Garden's 'orchard triangle' this morning, clearing overgrown grass from around the fruit bushes.

We dug and pulled out long grass to de-choke apple trees, a couple of raspberry canes, and in an unusual turn of events (for us) weeded around a bramble to give it more space to grow. All in pursuit of autumn blackberries. The raspberry canes have produced their first ever fruit - exciting!

We had a happy, muddy, not too soggy couple of hours.
