“The activities are suitable for families too and make for a great day out, particularly in January which can be tedious at the best of times.

“To take part, just pick up a promotional pack of Albert Bartlett Rooster potatoes to claim your free session.”

He adds: “Why not finish off your day with a healthy potato dish? It’s the best carbohydrate to fuel your workouts. It’s a win win.”
