Fruit pickers and migrant farm workers are back in the news I see. Time to revisit the brilliant ‘Feeding the Nation’ project.

@louisekpears Great to meet you today and discover someone else enthused by the tractor analogy!

🥦 Who picks our food? This new digital exhibition from @TheMERL illustrates the experiences of migrants in the agriculture sector. Local researchers @roxanabarbulesc and @BethRobertson55 in Leeds were involved in the research behind the exhibition. https://t.co/op9OKSwV9L

Thought-provoking visit to @WOWisGlobal this weekend; plenty of inspiration for discussions with @CIGSLeeds MA students this week 🤔

[Dr Bethany Robertson @BethRobertson55]

What a busy week for #ruralresearch 👐 @TheMERL exhibition 3 on seasonal farm work, @lpcminimumwage seminar on working w/ policymakers &
@livunigeog talk on social media & farmers 👩‍🌾👨‍🌾

[The Museum of English Rural Life @TheMERL]

Migrants and seasonal produce dominate many of our headlines. But we hear little about migrants in UK farming.

In our latest online exhibition @FeedingNation share the stories of those who pick our cabbages and daffodils.

Another fab collection from @TheMERL - history of 'homegrown produce' is pertinent when questioning its future amongst post-Brexit visas & production costs 🤔 #foodshortages

[Dr Ollie Douglas @OllieDouglas]

'Our Green Stories' @TheMERL has just gone live. There's a gallery trail too.
