On a (miraculously) dry Monday evening, 9 goodgymmers returned to park lane to support an experimental planting project.
After a swift 2km run (where we managed to scoop up newcomer Steph- lovely to have you on board!) we got to work quickly. A few weeks ago we had been here to clear the sight of unwanted weeds and it was looking in much better nick! There we even some flowers popping through the spaces we had cleared previously. However there was still work to be done - after clearing the larger weeds last time, he smaller ones had been given chance to florish.
Although we didn't clear quite as many bags as last time, the impact was obvious. We have another sessions booked in for November - it'll be great to see the progress then.
URBAN GreenUP is a EU-funded project which aims at developing, applying and validating a methodology for Renaturing Urban Plans to mitigate the effects of climate change, improve air quality and water management and increase the sustainability of our cities through innovative nature-based solutions.
