“The Edible Playground” Dorset Cereals

This garden showcases a 2008 national campaign sponsored by Dorset Cereals called ‘Edible Playgrounds’. This initiative seeks to inspire and encourage schools to develop small, productive plots.

The garden shows how a relatively small part of a school playground could be adapted to form an attractive garden, where children can learn about and experience the thrill of growing their own food, and by sowing, weeding, watering, composting, harvesting and cooking what they have grown and can develop a deeper understanding of their relationship with their environment
