EDITORS COMMENTS
This charming postcard image captures the essence of a quintessential English summer day in the early 1900s, as a family of pickers carefully select ripe plums from the laden branches of an orchard in Evesham, Worcestershire. Located in the heart of the West Midlands, this region of England has long been renowned for its plum production, with the town of Evesham being particularly famous for its plum cultivation and annual plum festival. The scene depicts a scene of intergenerational labor, with grandparents, parents, and children all working together to fill their baskets with the juicy, succulent fruits. The laborers wear simple, practical clothing, reflecting the agricultural nature of their work. The orchard, with its rows of trees stretching out towards the horizon, provides a picturesque backdrop to this idyllic moment. The plum picking industry was a significant part of the rural economy in this region during this time, and the laborers would have worked long hours under the hot summer sun to ensure a bountiful crop. The baskets, filled to the brim with plums, would have been transported back to the farmhouse or market to be processed into jams, pies, or sold fresh. This image offers a glimpse into a bygone era, where the rhythms of nature and the passage of the seasons shaped the daily lives of rural communities. The simple joy of plum picking, passed down through generations, continues to be a cherished tradition in Evesham and beyond.
