Don’t miss your chance to get a taste of the country life in the city when FARM HEROES SAGA– the follow-up new match 3 game from the makers of the CANDY CRUSH SAGA– brings a pop-up farm to Canary Wharf from 11.30am-3pm on 9 April 2014 marking the launch of the national “Be a Farm Hero” campaign. The campaign encourages stressed out city dwellers to try a bite-sized portion of farm life by growing their own fruit and vegetables.

King is celebrating the success of its new mobile game release, FARM HEROES SAGA, by launching this new spring campaign encouraging city dwellers to “Be a Farm Hero”, a campaign supported by Alex James, former city dweller-turned farmer and band member of Blur, who will be in attendance on the day.

For one day only, the area outside Canary Wharf station will be turned into a farm, bringing a taste of the countryside to the centre of the UK’s financial district, and teaching those who have trouble switching off from stressful city living about the benefits of taking time out from their busy days. Additionally, events will also be held in New York, Madrid and Paris to mark the global announcement.

On the day there will be also be live demonstrations and top tips on trying a bite-sized portion of farm life, with experts showing the public the benefits of taking time out from their busy lives and a way of switching off from stressful city living. You will also be shown tips on how to make the most of your office stationary and desk space to bring some added tranquility to your work environment.

The farm will be totally free for the public to enter, while commuters can also pick-up a free packet of seeds and a guide to getting involved with the campaign.

The day will also include the chance to experience the following treats:
• Live demonstrations from gardening experts
• Shiatsu and holistic massages to ease the stress on your neck, back, and shoulders
• Nail artist offering a fun Farm Hero Saga themed paint and sticker service to brighten up your day
• Opportunities to play the new mobile game FARM HEROES SAGA
