SCHOOL PROGRAMME
Incredible Edibles
Teaching primary school children all about healthy eating and where fruit and vegetables come from.
Introduction
Incredible Edibles is an experience-based healthy eating project for primary schools. The programme shows children how to grow fruit and vegetables and learn about where foods come from and the importance of quality.
It also highlights the important role that fresh produce plays in a healthy balanced diet and the importance of consuming at least five portions of fruit and vegetables every day.
If you take part we will send you free packs containing seeds and all the materials needed to grow your own strawberries, potatoes, lettuce, spinach, chives, carrots and turnips.
