The Neighborhood Association "Los Tajos" from Alfarnatejo, eager to recover customs and traditions is back for the third consecutive year with the organization of th
is event.
Formerly bonfires were lit at the gates of the farms for the end of the harvest, in full campaign raisins
Formerly as most villagers living in the villages, and coinciding with the grape harvest and passes, when night came on 7 September, huge bonfires were at the gates of their farms. The young men of the village were making the road to the farms, to visit the girls. And so the night passed, from farmhouse to farmhouse, eating, drinking, singing folk songs and dancing around campfires, especially songs from the wheel.
During the tour, the boys set fire to the stubble that had around the roads, for easy viewing. Thus, from the people saw the sign that the fire was leaving behind.
Also in different corners of the village were small fires. Neighbors gathered wood and cardboard to burn. It was made a doll with old clothes, he put a sign with your name and was put to the stake. Around the fire, the neighbors ate and drank, and sang traditional songs of the people.
At present, they are not as abundant bonfires that are lit on the field, because of the danger involved, but from the Association "Los Tajos" if they are to continue the habit of meeting with friends and relatives in the villages, to eat, drink and remember the songs of the wheel, for the enjoyment of young and old.
This year was held at the Cortijo Las Monjas.
Everybody is welcome to come
