Spanish Agriculture

The Spanish like to farm!

They have crops of corn, sunflowers, wheat, maize, vineyards, orchards and lots more.

 

In the little villages the houses each have their own little veggie gardens. There are some community gardens to. In the veggie gardens are tomatoes, beans, capsicums, corn, lettuce. I saw a lady picking tomatoes. I saw another lady getting bags out of the grain storage shed. She got a bag of grain and then she got down the ladder.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are also pine and eucalyptus plantations.

 

There are sawmills we road our bikes past.

 

There are dairy cows that they bring in to milk in the morning and afternoon.

 

Most houses in the villages have chickens in their backyards. There are lots of rosters. You can hear the rosters cock-a-do-da-loo as I rode through the towns.

I passed lots of vineyards as I rode my bike.

 

Through the middle of Spain there was lots of hay bails after harvest time. Some of the bails were round and some were square. Grace liked  climbing on top of them.
