'Plough Sunday' is a traditional English celebration of the beginning of the
agricultural year that has seen some revival over recent years. Plough Sunday celebrations usually involve bringing a ploughshare into a church with prayers for the blessing of the land. It is traditionally held on the Sunday after
Epiphany, the Sunday between
7 January and
13 January. Accordingly, work in the fields did not begin until the day after Plough Sunday:
Plough Monday.
