The visit to the National Farmers Union Office in Newmarket in the LACA East of England Region is a vital opportunity to support British agriculture. As an organisation, LACA welcomed the announcement of the new National Food Strategy and consulted with our members before responding to the call for evidence.
First to arrive are George Gittus – Farmer/ NFU Rep Suffolk and Rachel Carrington – NFU Regional Director, LACA’s Carol Harwood – Judge for school chef of the year and a School meals hero, chatting to Steve Cross about what’s on the menu.
Pupils from Paddocks Primary School magically turned into LACA ‘little helpers’ in the back of the van. Ready and raring to go.
Serving our uniformed services a hot and nutritious school meal before they get back to the day job of saving lives.
Dessert anybody, apple and toffee mouse with ginger soil or gluten free mixed berry crumble with creme fraiche … delicious.
Thank you to everyone that has helped today promoting the link between British farming & quality school meals.
