Do you know where all your food comes from? In this workshop you will find out what types, how much and where our food is grown around the world. By exploring the foods we grow in the UK, recognising seasonal food and understanding ‘food miles’, parents can learn how to talk and engage with their children about how beneficial it is to work with nature and grow certain foods ourselves. Linking health and well-being with looking after our planet Earth and by working together on science and art activities, families will increase their understanding of human inventions and support discussions on this topic at home.
