THE National Farmers' Union roadshow returns to Hereford on Friday to raise public awareness of food and farming and to promote British food.

And during its West Midlands tour, the roadshow will also be attending Ludlow Food Festival on September 14. During the annual tour of the country, the roadshow will be set up at nearly 150 locations throughout the summer months with more than a million people visiting it.

In Hereford it will be staged outside Tesco's from 10am to 4pm and it is expected to be a roaring success with the children. Those who visit it will receive a free farm goody bag and an exclusive Little Red Tractor badge.
