Help the Small Quarter community garden move some mulch

The Small Quarter Community Garden grows fruit and vegetables to be distributed to those less fortunate or able to afford healthy food through food banks.

Moving some of the woodchip to the garden site will really help them to maintain paths and areas so they can invite other volunteers to the garden. The woodchip mulch ensures that the site has clear and safe paths so all members of the community can come along and volunteer at the garden.

The mulch needs to be moved from a pile on Mitcham Common, on a wheeled trolley to the entrance to The Small Quarter Garden - barrowed off the trolley and distributed on paths within the garden. The trolley is stored at the Canons House but will not go through the entrance gate to the garden. Prepare to get your steps in during this session as the mulch needs to be moved around 200 meters from the pile to the garden over an accessible railway bridge.

In addition, we need to dig up some Jerusalem artichokes in the garden - these will need to be placed in a dry bag for over winter storage.

Meeting point: 10am at the shed outside the Pawalek Coffee Shop (located next to Canon's House). Note that the garden is located at: The Small Quarter, Croydon Road, Mitcham CR4 4JA.
