Hi All,
When my grandmother was alive she would often tell me of the times that she and her family (which included my mother) would go hop-picking in September to make a bit of money. I would like to research agricultural seasonal workers from Birmingham and was wondering if anyone knew where I could begin. In particular, I am looking to see how common this was, experiences, what areas of the country they would go to (my family would go to Worcester) etc.
Any information is more than welcome.
Thankyou
Cheriton
