Golden Hour
10 GoodGymers made their way to help the Golden Hill Community Garden in Bristol.
- Thursday, 24th of September 2020
- Led by Shona Buchanan
Even though it was suddenly a cold day, the sun was shining when we all eventually found our way to the hidden gem which is Golden Hill Community Garden and Allotments. It was great to have Rebecca and Becki join us for the first time, as well as Emma who is a long-time coach runner who is finally getting the chance to join some group sessions too. Lovely to meet you all!
We were met by Lucy who explained to us that due to herself being furloughed and minimum volunteers over the past 6 months, the garden has got very overgrown. We were split into three groups to tackle weeding in various forms: the pond-path weeders, the take-it-all-out path weeders, and the flower-bed knowledge-of-what-is-what-required weeders. While the third group scratched our heads over dandelions, grasses and flowers, everyone got to work clearing the paths, and filling a wheelbarrow and four troughs of weeds in an hour. Impressive! We headed on our ways as the sun starting dipping. Look forward to seeing you all soon!
