    This would be fantastic, I hope it comes through. I did a quiz with some of the children from my class last year and some of their ideas of where food comes from were mind blowing.

    Awesome find, thank you so much! My daughter's school has very little space, but they still try and encourage gardening with a couple of big planters in the playground. They will definitely love this. :)
