FARM TO FORK! 🍓🐷🥝🍌🍴

Thursday afternoon only means ONE thing for a certain group of Foresters…. an early finish!! Aka a Junior Wardens trip! 👏🏼🤩🚍

This time we were off to visit the wonderful world of Tesco! (Other supermarkets are available 😉)

We were given an exclusive behind the scenes tour of how it all goes down, including a frosty visit to the freezers to endure the -22°C breeze that keeps our Viennetta’s so fresh!! 🍧❄️🥶

After a triple head-count to ensure that no child was left behind tucking into a box of fish fingers, we headed out into the supermarket to discover where our favourite fruits and vegetables really come from!!

Mangoes? From Brazil?! I thought me Mam grew ‘um!

We were then given the opportunity to taste some fruits and cheese (yummmmmyy!!) before heading to battle in the ultimate lemon challenge! 🍋🤭 The mission: to eat a slice of lemon without flinching!! Check out these faces…. 😅

To finish a perfect day, we learnt some interesting facts about Tesco (For instance, they sometimes have up to 25 deliveries a day AND their uniform is made out of recycled plastic! How amazing!?!) and then we collected the bread that we had each baked at the very beginning of our trip! 😍🍞🥖

Congratulations to Britney who was the Star Baker of the day! (Mary Berry has already signed her up to a ten year contract as head baker at her new bistro in Paris!!)
