Sowing

When in March the farmer harnesses the horses

April/May

Like in grandfather’s time, oats, wheat, rye, barley... are sown in Terento’s church field, and peas, cabbages, onions, beetroot and potatoes are planted.


Adventure tips for the whole family:

  • At the “Eare fiehrn”, or “soil drive”, the soil is taken in special carts called “Earegrottn” from the lower edge of the field to the top edge
  • At the subsequent “Baudn” the field is ploughed with a horse-drawn plough
  • Just like in the olden days, the clods are then loosened and broken apart with a harrow, a process the locals call “Egn
  • The final step is “San”, sowing, where the farmers sow barely, wheat, oat, flax and more
  • The school children plant cabbages, carrots, onions, potatoes and other arable crops
  • Demonstrations of traditional farm equipment such as the “Earegrottn” carts, Radlstock, plough, harrow and others
  • Farmers and farm hands tell anecdotes and stories of “the life of farmers in days gone by”
