Find out about GoodGym TaskForce
Report written by Joanne Robinson
As the Eurythmics sang…'Thorn in my side you know that’s all that it was worth' this time though, the thorns came with a bundle of laughs to champion a blooming lovely and very bushy Hollybush Gardens.
This evening’s GoodGym team met with the wonderful Margaret this fine summer’s evening. Emma led an enthusiastic bunch of GoodGymers and with Leo conquered overgrown prickly brambles, itchy ivy and that sticky long stuff. While the remaining team got stuck into the compost heap and helped repot some blooming lovely petit pois and watered 24 community raised planters.
Everyone enjoyed supporting prep for London Bloom which will be judged at the start of July.
The Hollybush and Teesdale Estate Urban Growers project began in April 2009 in Rocky Park – a disused children’s play area. Now enjoyed by the whole community, the area includes seats and communal herb beds for all to use.
