It's Harvest Time!

The grape harvest is in full swing.  It took many workers, both male and female, to bring in the yearly harvest of grapes.  In this image we see many workers busy cutting grapes while trucks loaded with crates ready to be filled.

Women were also an important part of the labour required to bring in the yearly harvest of grapes. 

Models were hired to pose for promotional images for Brights Wines.   Here these two young women help in the harvest.
