Come and join us for an inspiring training day for teachers, exploring how Scotland’s natural food resources can be used as an inspiring and engaging topic for learning in schools. We will spend the day visiting a sea food smokehouse, a working estate and foraging on beach or woodland. You will then take learning back to school and have opportunity to put into practice your learning, and attend a sharing event at the end of term to share and learn more.
