Sol, Sheila and Angela met the community allotment on a sunny Friday afternoon.
The task was to prepare empty vegetable beds for the winter break. Angela and Sheila started weeding, Sol made several wheelbarrow rides to bring manure to the beds. The last part was to cover them with plastic sheets to suppress weeds over the winter months.
The hour passed quickly while catching up summer trips and upcoming events. We escaped the rain and that was a positive start to the weekend!
This task supported
The Maidenhead Community Allotment is run by a group of volunteers, who grow food to share with local residents, the users of the Boyn Grove Community and Resource Centre and Maidenhead Foodshare. They work with Men in Sheds, who are based on the same site. Men in Sheds is an initiative to combat loneliness by providing a space for men to connect and chat over practical tasks.
