FALL'S HERE AND IT IS THE SEASON OF FESTIVALS
October seems to be the month of festivals here in Sicily ... last weekend DH and I went to both the Pistachio Festival in Bronte and also the Octobratta Festival in Zafferana Etnea. Octobratta is held every Sunday in October and celebrates everything grown on Etna. Each Sunday focuses on one specific item - last Sunday was grapes. Other Sundays will feature honey, chestnuts, wine, apples and mushrooms.

Some interesting finds. The pigs was a bit unexpected I think
ReplyDeleteThat certainly was interesting!
ReplyDeleteI like the idea of a food festival per week.
