We were delighted to welcome @martinheydontd to see the Lidl Farm in action! Students explored the polytunnels, learned all about the milking process and different animal feeds, planted their own lettuce, and discovered the importance of soil types.

To top it all off, they hopped on the train for a behind-the-scenes tour of the Lidl regional distribution centre
