Having recently found the source of the chestnuts in this valley, it's a wonder we don't also have a Fiesta de la Casta�a (Chestnut Festival) locally. Or maybe we do, but I just haven't heard about it. However, yesterday, there was such a fiesta at the Finca de Osorio, which although it was in Teror (Gran Canaria), is a lovely little story (with photos). The festival, with music and cultural events, revolved around the traditional toasting of kilos and kilos of chestnuts, offering a delight as autumn arrives with the first rains of the season. I can smell them just thinking about it!
