EDITORS COMMENTS
In this nostalgic print from October 1970, we catch a glimpse of childhood in the 20th century. These children are engaged in a task that was not only common but also an opportunity to earn some extra money - potato picking or as some fondly referred to it, spud bashing. The setting is Park Farm, located at Kibblesworth just outside Gateshead. With determined expressions on their faces, these young helpers are diligently working together to gather the crop before the impending bad weather strikes. Their small hands carefully dig into the earth and pull out potatoes one by one, contributing their efforts towards ensuring a successful harvest. This snapshot encapsulates rural life during that era when farming played a significant role in sustaining communities. It serves as a reminder of simpler times when children actively participated in supporting their families' livelihoods through manual labor. The black and white composition adds an air of authenticity and timelessness to this image captured by NCJ. As we look upon these youngsters immersed in their duties, we can't help but reflect on our own memories of childhood innocence and the value of hard work instilled within us during those formative years. This evocative photograph transports us back to a different era while celebrating the resilience and resourcefulness displayed by these young individuals amidst nature's unpredictable forces.
