State Agricultural Farms, established in Poland after World War II, became an important part of Polish rural life over the following decades, especially here in the former East Prussia.

State Agricultural Farms (PGRs) weren't just places of work. They were an entire system organizing local life: apartments, preschools, community centers, libraries, sporting events, and the drab, yet often communal, everyday lives of residents. Their liquidation began in 1991, and with it, a certain world began to disappear.

In the first full-length interview in the "World of State Agricultural Farms" series, we give voice to the person whose brief memories began this project. In a candid, hour-long conversation, Ms. Zosia takes us on a journey back to her youth and her work on the former farm.

This is not just a record of memories of hard work, but above all, a story about interpersonal relationships, neighborly support, culture, and the realities of the era that shaped our region.

We invite you to listen to this unique story and join us in saving this memory from oblivion.
