“Not your average trip to Hackney farm”

Guests to the Hackney City Farm were surprised to see a very famous family there this weekend, as the ‘Beckhams’ tucked into a picnic and jumped on a red lawnmower tractor.

But in fact they were just A-list lookalikes and part of a stunt organised for Red Tractor Week, which launched on Monday.

It aims to get more Brits buying, cooking and eating UK produce, and a 12ft tall Red Tractor haystack mural had been created by British graffiti artist Mr Cenz for the occasion.

The Red Tractor logo food assures production standards on safety, hygiene, animal welfare and the environment.
