It’s raining GoodGymers. Hallelujah!
5 GoodGymers made their way to help the Colchester in Bloom in Colchester.
- Sunday, 4th of October 2020
- Led by Colchester runner
5 goodgymers met at Cuckoo Farm Studios on a cold and wet Sunday morning. We have been coming to Cuckoo Farm regularly for the last few months to help with gardening.
We met with Pam first thing and she loaded as up with scrubbing brushes cloths and warm soapy water. Rather than the usual gardening, we were tasked with helping clean some of the outbuildings ready for painting. The rain poured non-stop but we diligently carried on with the task in hand. First of all we worked on cleaning the wood panelling on one of the buildings, taking it from mossy green to a nice, clean white. We made light work of this and we then moved on to cleaning a caravan which houses the Cafe during the opening season.
With the place looking significantly spruced up, Pam thanked us with tea and biscuits before sending us all on our way.
