Testing Droitwich's new duck vending machine

Available for over a year

Feeding the ducks has been elevated to the 21st century at Vines Park, with a solar-powered vending machine made from 20,000 recycled plastic bottles. Officials say the sustainable machine helps visitors and families feed the wild birds the 'right' way, with a nutritious alternative to bread. Each lot of pellets cost £1 via contactless payments. The Âé¶¹Éç's youngest reporter, Alfie, who loves feeding ducks across the country, has been finding out for himself what the machine entails.
