Rubble trouble at Parkfields community garden
4 GoodGymers made their way to help the Parkfield Community Garden in Kingston upon Thames.

Parkfields community garden were in need of our help on Saturday morning. Four GG crew and other local volunteers came to pitch in with some tasks to help tidy the site up. The skip was unavailable so we sorted rubbish into piles ready for collection later. Stella cleared the entrance way, rooting out some seriously big weeds and clearing a curtain of climbing plants to make the way in more welcoming and less of a 'secret garden'. Adam, Emily & Jassy worked to transfer bags of stones into sturdy rubble sacks and sorted, chopped and moved lots of old timber, brambles, and plant debris to reduce a waste pile and liberate some tarpaulins. One highlight was when Emily was put on a pedestal for uncovering a ceramic sink support. Thanks to Alan, Kath and Karen for welcoming us and giving us a great challenge. We look forward to coming back and helping more as the garden takes shape.
