Today's task was to create some planting beds at Greenhill Allotments. We've cleared overgrown grass there before and it can be quite challenging, but the ground was relatively soft and cooperative today.

Task owner Sue was quite surprised that we managed to pile three wheelbarrows high with the removed grass and weeds. We managed to create two planting beds, with room for two more on the plot.

A very warm welcome to Edward on his first GoodGym task. It was quite a physical task today and a good amount of effort was put in by both Edward and Richard.
