On a sunny September morning, five GoodGymers headed out to lend a hand at the Barnes Common Community Growing Project, part of a local conservation and education charity.
Our task? A late-summer clean-up mission! We helped with weeding, clearing the borders, and a general garden tidy up!
We learnt about the many varieties of vegetables that are being grown there. Each week, these are picked by volunteers and packed into boxes that go to local food bank projects.
Big thanks to the Barnes Common Community project for having us, and to everyone who came out to make a difference.
