About
Get ready to discover the incredible world of insects and their important role on the farm! On this hands-on adventure, young explorers will investigate insects as a sustainable source of food, meet the pollinators that help our fruit and vegetables grow, and uncover how farmers can work with beneficial insects to manage pests naturally.
Learn why crickets could be a food of the future, discover which insects are the farm’s best friends, and become a pest detective as you search for clues about who is helping - and who is eating - our crops. It’s a fascinating look at how tiny creatures can make a huge difference to healthy farms and a sustainable food system!
Please note that all children under the age of 16 must be accompanied by an adult. Supervising adults do not require a ticket but must stay for the duration of the event with their child. Tours start promptly, please meet your guide outside the Library.
