11 Goodgymers went to the Food Union allotment.

Our task for the evening was to clear weeds, grass and nettles that had started to take over one of the corners of the allotment. Food Union feels like an oasis of calm not far from the city centre, and we had a good catch up chat whilst tidying up the beds. Trying (and sometimes failing) to avoid the mega nettles at full strength, we cleared lots of bindweed tangled around the fence, played with galium and newbie Kyle demonstrated his musical skills with only a blade of grass (well done for completing your first task with GG!). We posed for a few photos around the fire circle and found out about the summer solstice event next week.

Great to see you all, see you again next week for some more goodgym fun!
