This week, we had a parade of bicycles in the garden. Within the Mechanical Sundays event offered by the association “Colombes à vélo”, bocycle tinkering specialists offered their services to anyone who wanted to learn how to repair his bike. In the garden, it was a pretty sight: the neighborhood kids with wrenches, gardeners repairing their bikes, a team of residents and AAA members who attempted a first test water pump driven by a pedal mechanism. Stay tuned … Thus, ten bikes were repaired, belonging to the neighborhood and elsewhere, who went away with a smile. In addition, in the shared garden, gardeners were busy weeding, composting, planting winter vegetables. In parallel, Yvon Pradier, from Nature Ecology, worked on the farm to prepare us a quality earthworm vermicompost. The school garden has also received an overhaul, necessary because it was temporarily crowded after the start of construction.
