Festival-goers flock to our Food Chain farmyard
5 June 2009

On the sunny final weekend of May we took the Food Chain Campaign to Wychwood 2009.

This was our first festival appearance of the summer - and we're delighted to report that it was a big success with the public.

Our festival stalls have a farmyard feel this summer

Over just two days almost 2000 festival-goers filled in a postcard to their MP - asking them to fix the food chain.

We were also grateful to receive plenty of financial pledges. Thank you to everyone who took action or made a donation.

Our farmyard-style stall and a food chain themed giant snakes and ladders helped draw in the crowds.

Children really enjoyed the giant snakes and ladders

Kids really loved the games and giant animals. But they weren't the only ones to get into the spirit of things.

Martin Horwood MP was a good sport and put his head where others wouldn't - all in the name of planet-friendly farming.

We'll be taking the Food Chain farmyard to more festivals over the summer - so if you see us please come and say hello.

In the meantime why not email your MP today and tell them to fix the food chain.
