Synopsis

Footage filmed for a report on the impacts of climate change on Cornwall. One consequence of hotter, drier weather, is that damaged crops such as cauliflowers and cabbages are left to rot in the fields rather than harvested for sale in supermarkets. In this clip, volunteers pick the unused crops which are then cooked or re-distributed locally.
