Lopping, chopping, pulling, weeding

It was biblical rain outside, but we didn't let that stop us!

A hilly route up to Heeley was our path to go and help Fran from Heeley Green Community Garden.

We started with some weeding of planters, in preparation for new plants going in.

We made quick work of this and next we set our sights a bit higher to cut back some of the overgrown tree branches to allow more light into this overgrown and dark area of the community garden.

By the time we had done this, the water was seeping in to the skin, but there's only so wet you can get so we ploughed on, continuing to weed the area and prepare it for future plantings.

When we were done the area was looking much more clear and ready for a future task of turning the soil over and planting some bulbs for the future!

Until next time, happy running :)
