Event description:
Throughout Southern Africa, the ripening of the marula fruits from December to March is celebrated.
The "great harvest" begins in February/March, which also marks planting season. The Limpopo people call marula the "food of kings and ancestors," and celebrate the "Feast of First Fruits by pouring offerings of fresh juice over the tombs of their dead chiefs and family.
The Venda people look at the season as a time of festivity. Most time is spent sitting under the shade of the trees, preparing the brew and doing much "quality control" tasting, so do some of the other habitants in the province.
