Why should you eat #wholegrains regularly as part of a #healthydiet? 🌾
Because they can contain up to 75% more nutrients than refined cereals, are a great source of #fibre, vitamins, minerals & phytochemicals, and can reduce the risk of many common diseases. #WholeGrainWeek

Welcome to March. We’ve had a stern chat with last March who has assured us this March will be much less, how shall we say, horrific. So keep the masks on, keep diving into hedges to avoid people, you know the drill, and let’s trundle our way towards a lovely Summer. As you were.
