Leaves we eat

Download transcript

People do eat a lot of leaves and farmers grow a lot! Have you ever noticed just how many different colours are in the leaves we eat? Sally Bendall from Hollow Trees Farm and Shop in Suffolk is passionate about her kales, cabbages and broccolis. Her fields are a work of art. She also loves to farm in a way that means there is plenty to eat for the wild life that visit her fields. Have a listen to how she makes sure there is enough for birds, insects, animals and her farm shop.

Here are some of Sally's colourful leafy veg. For more information on Hollow Trees Farm www.hollowtrees.co.uk
