LEAF Education - #VirtualFarmMyFood

In 2019, hundreds of Business and Food students took part in #FarmMyFood; a farm visit and activity day with curriculum linked workshops, demonstrations, farm tour, group activities and careers advice. Due to the impact of Covid19 in 2020, a virtual version has been developed; including information, films, curriculum links, and tasks. It will help students understand how food and farming is relevant to their subject, and hopefully a desire to bring their learning to life on a real #FarmMyFood visit in the future.
A film of the visit in 2019 can be viewed here: leafuk.org/news-and-media/videos/farmmyfood-gcse-activity-day-leaf-education
