Land Girls

Land Girls were women in Britain during World War II who worked in agriculture to help produce food for the nation and support the war effort. With many men fighting overseas, women took on farming roles traditionally held by men, such as planting, harvesting, and caring for livestock. Organized through agencies like the Women's Land Army, these women played a vital part in maintaining the country’s food supply, ensuring stability during wartime. Their work challenged gender norms and contributed significantly to Britain’s resilience during a critical period.
