How many weeds would a weeder weed, if a weeder would weed weeds?

Saturday 19th September

Written by Polly

Today I joined my first Leeds Good Gym session with the lovely Laura! We visited Bedford Fields, a beautiful community garden. I was very excited to see the Dye Garden, the Potting Shed that is being built, and all the fruit to forage!

We swept pathways, clearing the fallen leaves into the compost heap, and also weeded beds and borders.

We were joined by other Bedford Field volunteers and the Sun came out to make a very enjoyable afternoon!

Can You Dig it?

Wednesday 2nd September

Written by Laura

Yes we can!

Last night the team got a great workout digging soil, moving it around ans creating a clear path at Bedford Fields. The rest of us weeded the beds. It was a great atmosphere as usual, with lots of chat & fun along the way.

Welcome to Mary who joined us last night.

Here we go round the mulberry bush

Wednesday 19th August

Written by Helen Noyes

Eleven GoodGymers headed to Bedford Fields this evening for weeding and tidying to paths and beds. We also spotted the apples were ripe for eating and the mulberry bush was begging us to find the darkest, sweetest berries. How could we refuse...

Sedimentary, my dear Watstone

Wednesday 8th July

Written by Laura

What a lovely evening! In very humid weather, Helen led us up to Bedford Fields with a bit of Japanese style slow jogging...we got in formation & recreated the craze (& felt like proper wally's).

We met the rest of the gang at Bedford & got to work clearing the stones from the path. We then weeded the edges to finish the job.

We spent a lot of time chatting tonight...it was too hot to work. That's our excuse anyway!

Well done to Rachael on her 105th task tonight.

Weed Warriors

Wednesday 24th June

Written by Laura

On a hot hot hot evening, Rachael led the team on a chatty, sweaty jog along the ridge up to Bedford Fields. They weeded, wood chipped & ate gooseberries in the shade.

Thanks to Rachael for leading & to everyone else for turning up in this heat!

Welcome to Christopher who completed his first session.
