Land Army Volunteers

Land Army Volunteers were civilians, often women, who contributed to agricultural production during times of war, particularly World Wars I and II. Their role was to work on farms, helping plant, tend, and harvest crops, ensuring a stable food supply when many traditional workers were fighting or otherwise unavailable. Their efforts supported national effort and resilience, filling labor shortages and maintaining food security. The Land Army symbolized collective patriotism and community cooperation, reflecting a significant civil contribution during wartime emergencies.
