EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the industrious spirit of the Lodsworth Women's Institute during August 1943. The image, taken by renowned photographer George Garland, is a testament to the resilience and resourcefulness of these remarkable women. In this snapshot, we see a group of ladies gathered together in their overalls, busily engaged in jam making. Their faces radiate determination as they meticulously weigh fruit on vintage scales and pour it into large baskets. A sack filled with fresh produce rests nearby, ready to be transformed into delicious preserves. The scene is set against the backdrop of an idyllic countryside setting in Lodsworth, West Sussex. It exudes a sense of camaraderie and community as these women work side by side with purposeful intent. Noteworthy details include the presence of Calor gas canisters used for cooking purposes and a traditional preserving pan bubbling away on an open fire. These elements highlight both the ingenuity employed during wartime rationing and the dedication these women had towards providing for their families. This print from West Sussex County Council's Garland Collection serves as a poignant reminder of how ordinary individuals came together during challenging times to support one another through acts such as jam making – an essential skill that ensured food preservation when resources were scarce
