Rain Supreme in Jubilee week
10 GoodGymers made their way 3.2km to help the Saint Swithun's Church Garden Clear Out in Lewisham.
- Monday, 30th of May 2022

It was due to be everyones favourite task....painting!! the downpour of rain that started as we gathered outside Glass Mill put a stop to that. After a couple of texts back and forth, we had a new plan of action:
- clear area of driveway for wildflower seeds to be sown
- clear overgrown weeds from fence line (can weeds ever not be overgrown?)
- clear weeds from paths and flower beds
- untangle bindweed
We divided into groups to conquer the tasks and battled with the rain that was still pouring down! A bit of rain doesn't stop GoodGymers but by the time we left waterproof jackets had certainly been tested to their limits!
On Saturday we're heading to Marsha Phoenix Trust for some post-parkrun gardening.
