Primary school is a growing success
Beeches Primary School in Peterborough had been growing potatoes as part of the Food for Life awards, a Government initiative to teach the core ethos of healthy and sustainable food.
The children took part in ‘Get Growing’, which educates them on where food comes from and how it grows, and in April planted potatoes, sponsored by McCain.
