All hail plant sale

Sunday 10th May

Written by Rebecca Stone (She/Her)

After some perusing of the plants for sale and welcoming new GoodGymer Libby, we got to work tidying up the tables and plants after the hospice's successful sale. We carefully stacked some ceramic plant pots, wiped and packed away the tables, and boxed up the unsold plants into crates and wheelbarrowed them round the back of the centre for someone to sort through tomorrow.

Every litter pick counts! But this one counted extra!

Saturday 9th May

Written by Elle (She/her)

Soph and Elle joined the Fulford Litter Pick this morning and the photo says it all! (Just as a point of clarification, as I think many people assume Soph lives in Fulford, she hikes her way from Acomb for each of these tasks so an extra applause for Soph! Lazy Elle has to go for a long walk after to not feel so guilty!)

I continued the mission for unpacking boxes for Mr J. I managed to clear away lots of paperwork, but still found some lovely postcards and pictures to keep. 3 boxes down, and another 3 to go, 1 more push and the room will be cleared!!

No skipping

Thursday 7th May

Written by James Tilburn

There was a slight change to the task tonight as the expected skip had not arrived at the allotments. Luckily there was a backup plan to get all the rubbish into a van so we were still able to help buy barrowing and carrying it to the car park. It looked like there had been some serious fly tipping at the allotments as a lot of the rubbish was not the kind of stuff you would usually find on an allotment site.

With six of us we made light work of the task. Unfortunately the van did not arrive in time for us to help with the loading.

A big shout out to Lisa for completing her first GoodGym task after signing up more than a year ago! To be fair to Lisa, she is also a run leader with Community Fit in Harrogate and has done more than a hundred good deeds with them over the last few years.

I'm starting to lose my thyme!

Thursday 7th May

Written by Elle (She/her)

Rachel and Elle were given free rein on weeding ... this might just be a GoodGym thing, but it was so satisfying that Elle nearly made it late to the Planet Food task and could still see Rachel out the window 15 minutes later! I think we definitely have a convert!
