We arrived to a sea of tree planters! Great to see how many people attend these sessions. The main bulk of the group, including Cara and Lucy, focused on planting new tiny saplings (sticks!) and guard & poling them up, while the rest of GoodGym (plus two lovely people from South Bank Community Garden) headed down to a previously planted area. Here our job was to replace the poor quality cardboard guards that had been defeated by rabbits, or just fallen apart, with (hopefully better quality) new ones from the manufacturers. These were a little fiddly to thread onto the poles but we got the hang of it and had soon finished the pack. Fingers crossed these ones will defeat the relentless rabbits!

Over the hill to the next task!
