homeland

My grand-parents owned this farm 50 years ago and they were self-sufficient or so. They cultivated their own flowers, vegetables and fruits, they had chickens, eggs, ducks, meat from sheep and oxen, they used to sale whool, they had fishes and frogs from the lake besides the village. The only things they bought from local shop-keepers were cheese, dry sausages, oysters and wine. A lot of wine !!! Now my cousin and his sons cultivate the land, but they buy food stuff at the supermarket : pickles from India, beans from China, roses from Ecuador... What a strange world.
