On this lovely Saturday morning with blue skies and a crisp air, GoodGym Lambeth teamed up with Tom and his local community gardening group to firstly clear ivy and weeds from around the pond, followed by one group cutting back brambles and the other, cutting back ivy to expose a lovely brick wall! We then carried all our weeds and cuttings to a compost heap and helped Tom store away the tools. All in all a very active and helpful morning!

Palace Road Nature Gardens
A wild oasis in Streatham

This small nature garden was created in the 1980s. It provides a varied habitat of both an open grassland and a wooded area of exotic and native trees. The pond attracts dragonflies and damselflies flying above and frogs and newts swimming below. Gerry always needs a hand to keep the paths clear of brambles and weeds and to make sure the public space can be enjoyed by everyone.
