A London institution that ‘offers an opportunity for children and adults to get up close to a range of farmyard animals and to learn about where their food comes from and why that matters,’ according to its website, introduced two famous visitors to the finer points of farm life yesterday.

Camilla, Duchess of Cornwall, and Prince Charles look a little out of place among the pigs, cows and goats at Hackney City Farm, located in central London. (Hackney City Farm is part of the Federation of City Farms and Community Gardens, a U.K. charity.)
