EDITORS COMMENTS
Our Countryside, 1938: Storing Roots captures a timeless scene of rural life in the English countryside. The photograph, taken by an English photographer in the 20th century, showcases a traditional method of storing roots for the winter.
In this image, we see a group of pigs gathered around a pile of freshly harvested roots. The animals are busy feasting on the nutritious food source, preparing themselves for the colder months ahead. The simplicity and authenticity of this moment evoke a sense of nostalgia for simpler times when people lived off the land and relied on nature's bounty to sustain them.
The photograph is part of a series of cigarette cards on the theme of Our Countryside, issued by Senior Service in 1938. It serves as a reminder of our deep connection to nature and the importance of preserving our agricultural heritage.
As we gaze upon this snapshot from nearly a century ago, we are transported back to a time when life moved at a slower pace and people were more attuned to the rhythms of nature. It is a beautiful reminder that despite all our modern advancements, there is still much wisdom to be gained from observing and respecting the ways of our ancestors.
