On a fresh, crisp Autumn morning a group of GGers met at the beautiful Paradise cooperative garden for a huge task shoveling no less then three tonnes of horse manure!

After a quick chat about what connects us to nature we got on to the 'mane' task. An enormous pile of manure, two compost bins, eight GGers and one hour to complete the job. Could we do it? That was equestrian! (sorry)

We quickly organised ourselves into groups - Annabel, Letizia and Felix were super shovelers, Kamil and Igor became brilliant barrowers, Jordan raked to perfection and Jason was king of the mountain!

As Letizia put it, 'there was a good group and we got organised quickly finding a good rhythm to complete the task ahead of time.'

Amazing to see what can be achieved with many hands and some serious horse power!

A special shout out to Letizia for completing her first task and to Igor for his first session in Wandsworth - great to meet you both!
