6 Goodgymmers met with taskowner Sue at the Community Allotment. The place has changed so much since last year, with many new raised beds, fruit trees and some wooden sheds and structures. Sue had a long list of tasks for us. Gillian, Rosie and Angela tackled the the spinach bed, removing the old chard plants and replacing with some young spinach Sheila dug one bed, removing a few raspberry canes to be potted up, and planted the bed with some dwarf bean plants with help from Angela. Meanwhile, Kanika and Diya weeded another bed and constructed 2 wigwams from bamboo poles. These were planted with climbing beans. Sue and Rosie also spent some time cutting back the brambles in the new fruit tree area Gillian gave everything a good water. A great way to start off the Bank Holiday weekend!
