The person breaking up the soil around the leeks with a hoe
An illustration of a woman breaking up the soil around leeks that have been earthed up for harvesting, using a hoe.
She has a towel wrapped around her neck, engaged in the strenuous labor of moving soil. Yet, the sight of her smiling as she works conveys the joy of harvest glimpsed amidst the hard work.
The person harvesting leeks
This illustration shows a person continuing the work depicted above: pulling up leeks from the soil, shaking off the dirt, and inspecting their condition.
Unlike the woman in the previous illustration, this man stares intently at the leeks with a stern expression. He could be someone performing quality control.
