Last night 3 GoodGymera braved the British winter weather and helped Anita at Raggy Rd allotments with a wood chip spreading task and making a plot ready for harvesting

On Saturday Agnija spent a few hours at Raggy Rd allotments helping to tidy up some plots for service users who have mobility issues. This vital help means that these ladies can now start sowing the seeds and looking after their own plots

This morning Agnija spent a couple of hours helping Anita from Raggy Rd Allotments with more cutting back if the plots, getting them ready their service users to plant new produce.

When I arrived I removed rubbish from a plot and started to rotate the soil, ready for planting seeds. Using the rotavator to break down the soil. After this I used the strimmer to cut back all the long grass around the borders to the path and at the perimeter nearing the fence. This was raked (& Swept) into piles. I moved a incinerator to a suitable position away from overhanging trees and rested this onto a platform of bricks. This allowed my co worker to get set on burning all the cuttings we had accumulated over the past weeks. All in all a thoroughly positive day shared by those I met who were also working on there plots.

When I arrived I got to work with the strimmer and cut back overgrown weeds and long grass. Making sure the paths were clear and redefining the borders to patches and paths running in-between them. The waste was raked into piles and cleared to be taken away and discarded.

Today Samuel and Agnija continued with their hard work at helping turn over allotment plots for Raggy Rd Allotments. Their help is very much appreciated by task owner Anita.

Great to see the difference the team are making. Today's efforts helped out a lady who'd had a hip replacement and therefore was unable to do the digging herself.

We look forward to going along this coming Monday evening to do more work here.
