Bags of fun at Kidwells Park
5 GoodGymers made their way to help the Wild Maidenhead in Windsor and Maidenhead.
- Saturday, 16th of October 2021
- Led by Windsor and Maidenhead runner
Juli, Nick, Carina, Jordan and newcomer Monika - welcome to our group - met Rachel and Deb from Wild Maidenhead to give a bit of TLC to the wildflower bed in Kidwells Park which was established last year. Now that the flowering season is over, our task was to tidy the bed ahead of winter, cutting down the dead stems and raking over the soil to encourage the wildflower seeds to germinate. A small area was left uncut to provide a safe haven for wildlife and some seed heads for food. We quickly filled two giant bags with the dead stems, and had to employ Jordan to compress the contents so we could finish our task.

Well done everyone! Congratulations Monika in particular on your first good deed. I'm also very impressed with Nick and Juli getting involved despite having already directed and tidied away a rainy parkrun. In one pic it looks like Jordan is at risk of being carted off with the green waste...😆
