The weather is warming up, tho still cool and rainy. Oranges cover the trees and the whole region smells of sweet citrus.

Festival of First Fruits | 2nd  #

The Festival of First Fruits is a time to give thanks to the Light and the earth for nourishing all life. The town comes together to plant new trees to spark new life for future generations. Families gift baskets of oranges, apples, nuts, and olives to each other with notes of good wishes. Children especially love drinking the fresh orange juice.
