Capitalising on a sunny Saturday, 7 Goodgymers ventured to Oxford City Farm. Originally, we were set to help at their Autumn Festival, however, due to the heavy rain over the last couple of weeks this had to be postponed. Instead, we helped the clearup effort. Our first task was weeding under the apple trees and the beds of leeks. Weeds pulled and conversations had across many topics we enjoyed a cuppa and homemade flapjack with the other volunteers.

Our final task saw us clearing a path and area behind the kitchen in the hope that it can be used for future visitors to the farm for activities. Jobs done, we made sure to pick up some produce from the farm, jellies and preservatives were the order of the day. As it was Matt B's last Goodgym task in Oxford we hotfooted it the Jolly Postboys for crisps and a refreshing beverage.
