Lettuce Play Football

This season, we’ve formed a partnership with the Richmond Junior Soccer Club.

“It’s a fantastic association; healthy, happy kids being supported by a local Richmond company which grows great lettuces. We think this is a great way of encouraging healthy eating among kids from a young age”, said Wayne Johnson, Richmond and Eastern Region President.

Soccer is huge in Richmond and on the Eastern Shore. We are expecting hundreds of kids to sign up for this season now that registrations have opened.  We welcome children of all abilities and experience. It doesn’t matter if you have never played before. It’s a great opportunity for kids to have fun, learn about team work and build their confidence and self-esteem.

Farm owner Anthony Houston said, “we have been a part of the Richmond landscape for many years and have drawn quite a few employees from the area. We appreciate all the support that the community has shown to us over the years and are very happy to be able to now lend our support to a local club which provides such a healthy sporting activity to the kids in the area.”
