The art and music of growing rhubarb

Today

Available for over a year

Yorkshire Forced Rhubarb has its own protected designation and a special sherbet tang. To celebrate the arrival of this year's harvest, Wakefield's Hepworth Gallery is staging an exhibition by the photographer Martin Parr capturing the mood and feel of the strange dark world of Yorkshire's Rhubarb triangle. David Sillito paid a visit to the sheds and has been listening to the rhubarb grow. (Image: Rhubarb farmer. Credit: Martin Parr / Magnum Photos)
