In January we had weeded around the play train at Holgate Community Garden ready for bark chip to be laid. However with this being delayed, the area had gone back to grass and weed. The council agreed to provide bark chip if the weeds were cleared so we were called in to the rescue. In 45 mins we managed to clear most of the weeds around the train leaving only a short amount left to do. We welcomed Olivia Olivia who has recently moved to York to her first Goodgym task. Luckily she wasn't too put off by the strange topics of conversation and joined some of us in the Fox Beer Garden at the end.
