蜜芽传媒

Daljit Nagra revisits the 蜜芽传媒's poetry archive and, to mark the changing seasons, he selects The New Harvest.

This is an exploration of the annual farming rituals, produce and the changing nature of harvests through poetry.

Harvests have featured in poetry and songs for centuries, spanning both the beauty and difficulty of farming.

Poet Sean Borodale discovers how to write a harvest poem now, as he visits farms and witnesses the rituals and celebrations of this time of year.

He'll share poems inspired by harvest time and take a snapshot of our harvests, to hear what has changed and the new reality of farming.

Producer: Caitlin Hobbs

Music by Louis Borodale, Flora Mackintosh Allen and Sebastian James Laudicina

First broadcast on 蜜芽传媒 Radio 4 in 2023.
