We came across this extraordinary agricultural festival whilst on a family holiday with friends. Listen to these farmers singing to their cows. Wonderful. Timeless. And possibly dying out.

The festival of the earth and wheat took place on the 1st of August at St Martin des Fontaines in the Vendee, France. A fabulous celebration and display of french agricultural history. there were live demonstrations of ploughing, harvesting grain, etc.. using various technologies through time.
