the minutes of the last BBO Steering Group meeting. Year of Food and Farming
The Year of Food and Farming is a campaign to promote healthy living
by giving young people direct experience of countryside, farming and
food. BBO Food Group members - both farmers and food producers - can get
involved, and invite school children to follow the food story from field
to fork. Today's school children are tomorrow's customers, so let's get
them excited about local food!
