Award-winning documentary photographer Joanne Coates has put together an inspiring exhibition including portraits of female farmers in Northumberland and the Scottish Borders. Drawing from her own experiences having worked on a farm, she visited 34 farms creating an exhibition that aims to make women more visible in agriculture.
The photo exhibition was being displayed at The Gymnasium Gallery, Berwick-upon-Tweed until Sunday 5th June. This BBC article shares the story of five of the farmers photographed and interviewed by Joanne Coates.
