EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from September 1949, we are transported back in time to witness the industrious women of Fittleworth Women's Institute canning tomatoes at Mill House. The image, part of the George Garland Collection held at West Sussex Record Office (Ref No: Garland N32343), captures a moment of teamwork and dedication. The scene is set around a rustic wooden table adorned with an array of canning essentials. A kettle steams on an Aga stove, ready to sterilize the jars that will soon be filled with delicious homemade tomato preserves. A colander and sieve stand nearby, ensuring only the finest produce makes its way into each jar. The women work diligently, their hands expertly peeling and chopping tomatoes while wearing flowered dresses that epitomize the fashion of the era. With precision and care, they fill each jar with tomato goodness before sealing them tightly with lids. Amidst their hard work, there is a sense of camaraderie as laughter fills the air. A tea towel hangs nearby, evidence of moments taken for well-deserved breaks and shared stories over cups of tea. This snapshot not only showcases these remarkable women's commitment to preserving food during challenging times but also highlights their resilience and resourcefulness. It serves as a reminder of how communities came together during post-war years to ensure sustenance for all. As we gaze upon this historical gem from West Sussex County Council archives, let us appreciate these unsung heroes who embraced industry and ingenuity in
