Getting to the root of the problem
1 GoodGymer made their way to help an isolated older person in Bristol.
- Sunday, 23rd of July 2023
Here's what Mrs S of BS5 had to say about the mission:
'Dave (?) the volunteer was excellent. I was amazed how much they were able to do in the time we had and that they were able to pull the roots out that had grown deep into the ground. He was kind, courteous and respectful.'
Mrs S wanted to plant some perennials in her front border but a back problem meant that she has been unable to prepare the ground.
We spent a nice 90 minutes chatting while I trimmed back a bush, turned over the soil and dug up a previously chopped down bush that kept trying to grow back due to some deep roots.
Great fun! ๐
