Seasons & Festivals

Tomorrow marks the end of the fasting month of Ramadan here in Morocco. For life in the Moroccan High Atlas villages, it will be a day of spending time with your family, before embarking on the start of the walnut harvest. Last year was a good year for walnuts and early indications are that this year will be good as well.

Lower down the olives are being harvested and brought to the olive press. Last year was a poor year resulting in high olive oil prices. This year looks to be better. Here's hoping....

In the meantime, Eid Mubarak !
