Summary:

"Twenty-first century youngsters are more likely to have holidayed abroad than to have explored England's fields and farms, but in the Year of Food and Farming increasing numbers of farms are trying to change that. With recent research showing that more than one million children across the country have had absolutely no contact with the land, a campaign has been launched to help children find out more about the countryside and where their food comes from through memorable, first-hand learning experiences on farms. Year 8s from St Bartholomew's School, a comprehensive in the rural town of Newbury, visit Rushall Farm, an organic farm in Berkshire. The visit shows that even children brought up in country areas often have very little idea of what is going on in the countryside around them and how it relates to the food on their plate."
