Place UK is currently harvesting this year’s forced rhubarb. The crop is grown in dark conditions thus the plant does not photosynthesise. As a result, it produces a sweet and tender pink stem which is perfect for a delicious rhubarb crumble!

@norfolksmith These jobs have always been available to people in the UK but due to low unemployment and seasonality there has historically been little interest. During these times, it is important we support each other, offering work to individuals that are currently not receiving an income.
