🧵 It's great to see so many health food experts and campaigners such as @jamieoliver calling for the next government to urgently address the steady decline in children's health!

Here's why we urgently need action: https://t.co/vICS7An406

Growing is always an evolving skill. Every year it brings something new to learn, adapt and enjoy.

Summer term off to a flipping great start. Pancakes & crepes using surplus. Simple, cheap and definitely a life skill worth having. Discussing what surplus is and myth busting what big companies want us to think.

🦋 What's in Season in the UK in June?

🌞 So much amazing produce to choose from in June

🍓 My favourite this month is definitely strawberries. You can't beat the smell and taste of a British strawberry.

🍅Which are your favourites?

🥒 Take a look ⬇️

Postcodes aren't people. Let's get free school meals rolled out for all pupils across Britain. It's the only sensible way forward.

[Fi Black @fimblack]

All the colours. First beauts of the season. Pulled and eaten.
Growing your own beats everything. Growing in school is one of the best lessons for living in the wider world.

Potatoes! 🥔🥔🥔
The same recipe but making choices. Gnocchi? Potato cakes? Add cheese? An egg? Eat now? Take home? Conversations around food and choice embed healthy eating and establish in-depth tacit knowledge. Learn. Chat. Do.

Our community kitchen is as much about conversations and kindness as it is about feeding our community with the best food around.
There is complete joy every week. @connect_tha @HalifaxAcademy_ @OrganicNorth #organic #community

Cross-party support for #FreeSchoolMealsForAll is growing.

We were pleased to be in Parliament to support the launch of @IPNEducation’s Parliamentary Toolkit.

We urge the Government to extend Free School Meals to every child in primary school 👉 https://t.co/KGJDIizIUn

Great to be part of the #UKSPF work brightening up or community. Looking forward to seeing more on the walking trail.

Free school meals make sense. Invest in the future. Feed them now.

[National Education Union @NEUnion]

We've joined with celebrity chefs Tom Kerridge and Hugh Fearnley Whittingstall, charities, doctors and experts, to urge all candidates in upcoming mayoral elections to roll out free school meals across the country. @Food_Foundation #FreeSchoolMealsForAll
