Customs & Festival Days Autumn & Harvest Time

The Germans of the Community of Feketitsch
by Dr. Viktor Pratscher, translated by Brad
Schwebler

    On the occasion of the completion of the threshing work the workers went singing through the village pulling their threshing machine decorated with flowers. There was no special harvest festival. The cold midday meal in the vineyard tasted excellent. The effect of the many grapes and cider first comes later. Instead of the former stomping on the grapes Treten (Trippeln), today these are ground and pressed.
