In our third and final visit to the 24th Coventry Scouts Allotments, 7 GoodGym runners completed a range of tasks to get the allotment ready for when the Scouts are allowed to meet again.

This week, the final tree was planted, we removed some sneaky weeds that had popped up in the raised beds, sowed radishes, carrots, broccoli and turnips and started to deconstruct pallets to make a fence. There was also some raking and watering to do, as well as making some improvements to the potting shed.

Dan the Scout Leader was very grateful for our work and bought us some yummy brownies to enjoy once we had finished.

Hope to see you all at the same time (different allotment) next Tuesday!

24th Coventry Scouts Allotment
Providing the opportunity for our young people to grow

We are a new scout group set up in Woodend, Coventry. In October 2019 we took on a very large allotment to give our young people to opportunity to grow their own food, learn about the environment and sustainability and to support our community with fresh fruit and vegetables. Unfortunately due to covid we have been unable to meet this spring and the Allotment has become very over grown.
