EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Cabbages at Tillington - October 1939" transports us back in time to witness the diligent work of three field workers during the harvest season. The image showcases their expertise as they skillfully cut and pack cabbages into sturdy crates, preparing them for the bustling market. A well-laden lorry stands tall in the background, eagerly awaiting more crates to transport these freshly harvested vegetables. The photograph captures a moment frozen in time, offering a glimpse into the agricultural practices of yesteryears. It serves as a testament to the hard work and dedication of those who toiled on farmlands, ensuring an abundant supply of food for communities.
