About Tractor Ted

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. He’s the nation’s favourite little green tractor, and visitors to the Royal Bath & West Show can meet him in person: Look out for Tractor Ted! But this endearing little character has his roots firmly in farming. Join Cheeky Midge the dog in her story book where she is trying her best not have a bath!

Tractor Ted and Midge hide from Farmer Tom around the farm. There can be few things as powerful as regularly reading to a young child.
