The festival in Amposta
Amposta closes the harvest calendar, well into October. The demonstration takes place at the edge of the field and, afterwards, anyone who wants can go down and cut with the sickle.
The day continues with a community lunch and a market of local produce.

Traditional harvest
The crews head down to the field and the work is done by hand, as before machinery. Anyone who wants can join them.
