Etymology
The word 'gleaner' originates from the Old French word 'glener', which means 'to gather'. In medieval times, gleaners were those who collected leftover crops after the main harvest, often seen as a form of charity or a way to ensure no food went to waste. Over time, the term has evolved to also refer to those who gather information or data from various sources.
