Tractor Ted, the loveable little green tractor and children’s farming superhero, originated when young Mum, Alexandra Heard, was constantly asked to stop the car by her young children when they saw farm machines working in the fields.

This small seed of an idea grew when Alexandra identified that there was nothing ‘real life’ available for young children on television to watch, understand and engage with about farming and the countryside.
