A fearless fab four headed out into a fog‑soaked spring evening, powering up Farley Hill in search of our newest community‑garden partnership. At St John’s Church we were greeted by Carlene, who guided us to the hidden green haven tucked neatly behind the building.

Our mission: assemble a brand‑new poly‑tunnel… minus any instructions. Cue a symphony of puzzled looks, pole‑juggling, and collective detective work. Slowly but surely, logic (and a fair bit of trial and error) won out. Arches took shape, a base emerged, and before long we were confidently bolting everything together as a sturdy structure rose around us.

We didn’t quite get it finished, but we left it tantalisingly close—ready for the garden’s regular volunteers to complete in daylight. With time ticking, we dashed back down the hill into town, pausing only for celebratory cupcakes to mark David’s incredible 500‑deed milestone. Huge thanks to Gill for the perfect post‑run treat!
