Crop to Shop
at Foxburrow Farm education centre, Melton, Woodbridge

Free transport available for the first 10 schools to book a Crop to Shop visit!!

Suffolk Wildlife Trust are offering KS2 and KS3 students the opportunity to learn about food, farming and wildlife and how they can work together through our Crop to Shop programme, funded by the Chadacre Agricultural Trust.

The students will study the crops grown at Foxburrow Farm and consider each stage of their production, from planting seeds top produce being sold in the shops.  There will be a focus on sustainability, with discussions about buying local foods instead of food that has travelled from across the world.

Bookings for Crop to Shop are being taken for summer and autumn 2008.  The charge for a visit is £3.50 per child (£75 minimum charge).  The first 10 schools to apply will receive The Chadacre Agricultural Trust funding of up to £100 towards transport.  For more details and to make a booking contact Jenny Kent, Education Officer at Foxburrow Farm on 01394 380113 or email foxburrow.education@suffolkwildlifetrust.org
