The New Harvest

Poet Sean Borodale explores 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.

Presented by Sean Borodale and produced by Caitlin Hobbs.
