Yesterday we had a wonderful day at the farm!
We explored the farm, fed the animals, went tractor riding and did rock painting with families we support.
Big thank you to @RHUBARBFARM1 for hosting us and providing a lovely lunch 😊

.@RHUBARBFARM1 volunteers are part of a social enterprise engaged in horticulture and agriculture.A lovely group of them made sausages yesterday with Sally, using meat from pigs they have raised. Their own recipe included tomato, oregano, chili and smoked paprika.
We visited the Bassetlaw Food Hubs run by @RHUBARBFARM1 together with community partners such as @RamsdenPrimary, the @nowchurchuk pantry in Langold, and @BassetlawS by @BassetlawB. All of these projects reach communities who have limited access to good food.
Mel from @RHUBARBFARM1 v kindly came to talk to GPs about food hubs and brought an example of FareShare boxes to that they could cook with the kind of food patients will be picking up. All part of Best Food Forward food initiative with health professionals.
We are delighted to announce that @RHUBARBFARM1 has been awarded some funding from @comicrelief to allow the BFIN Food Hubs, cookery classes & slow cooker courses developed alongside ABL Health and the @yhywnotts service to continue. We have enjoyed filming with them this week.
We had a great day yesterday at The Langwith Show at @RHUBARBFARM1 - a shining example of a community coming together to support a fantastic facility, as well as each other.
Yesterday we had the pleasure of welcoming @RFJamesUK. This was as part of our Golden Awards project with @RankFoundation.
Our Volunteers foraged natural materials from site including fallen fruit and florals. The process, enthusiasm and team work was great to see.
