10 GoodGymers braved a rumbling thunderstorm to help maintain the lovely secret garden at the Quaker Burial Ground.
The task at hand was to clear overgrown ivy that was blocking the entrance way and strangling the trees.
Picking a tree each made social distancing easy, just watch out for the frogs underfoot!
A very satisfying and therapeutic activity, peeling the ivy from the tree trunks and walls was a bit trickier than it looked, but in around 50 minutes we’d completed the task.
With a few minutes left Jan from Arundel Avenue Community Garden, who maintain the garden, led us on a quick walk around the garden and a peek into the bee hive.
Thanks to Jo for the pun inspiration, and great to see Kate again for her 3rd Good Deed.
Good job everyone on a task well done!
