It was brutally cold this morning as 8 of us arrived at St Richards. Special welcome to Viktor for his first good deed with us, and shout out for bringing four more members of your family to help out! We were out in force today and we had plenty of jobs to keep us all busy. 💪
Julian was a smooth lopper-ator*, lopping all the the branches he could reach off the trees, or should I say, pollarding lime trees as I learned it was called today!
Jenny and Marta worked up a sweat sanding down the lovely wooden door and giving it a fresh coat of varnish - what a difference it has made! And Khai, Cat, Linda and Viktor gained some ground in the war of the weeds out front and back. In fact, Viktor's family practically excavated half the back garden in very little time. A great effort in our mission to clear all the weeds and get the garden ready for planting. 🌻
An hour and a half later and we were ready to warm up with a nice coffee before heading home for some lunch.
Great job team. On Wednesday we're back at Dee's Nursery , continuing to create a roundabout for the kids in the garden!
Until next time 👋
