In order for Jews and Jews to grow and to stand up with the lianas on the right, they are placed a blind spot on our side, on this side of Beterri. The stick, the rod, the fork, the arba... It has a lot of names. I found a “pordon” that I can’t find the word “parda” in any dictionary. Yes, pothole of the famous Pordoi-dantza de Tolosa or Zardai-dantza. Ibon Sarasola, in her mythical Basque dictionary of Aukerak, defines the pordon as: “The long stick that the pilgrim or traveler bears.” And for example, the verse of the bertsolari donostiarra Joxe Bixente Etxagarai (1773-1855): “From the bordon hangs water / curved”. Apparently, the pordon is a stick with the end torn and longer than the person. Bordón in Spanish.
If the pothole comes from Bordón, do not be surprised that the parda from our vegetable garden comes from the barda. And in the Basque–Spanish Dictionary of Azkue, yes, not in the Sarasola Dictionary. Barda is the branch of a tree dressed in smaller branches.
In the past, the field or orchard was made up of branches. Today the image is singular: the brown, standing, supported on the branches of a tree close to the house. The branches that had been torn to another tree were picked up in the mother's bluff.
In the forest, at the edge of the route, in a pond, the horticulturist would take a good ration. I would have been an expert at dancing the knife and the axe to rip the horn off the tree and then sharpen the snout. With local wood. In Oiz, in the orchards towards the Leurtza River they have creepy, tomato sticks that call cuttlefish. Today, does the horticulturist have an axe? In the current foundation they send iron and plastic: iron rods used in construction to assemble the beton, rods directly cut and sharpened in the sawmill, aluminium tubes for broom handles, thin polyethylene nets wide eyes and polypropylene, metal threads and cables...
J. M. Barandiaran has taken over the name of Pordonbaratza from a peak of Ernio. Is it a vegetable garden buried in the way of the orchards of Mairu, in a place known for its pores?
Last night I went out quiet and hunt snails. After the beautiful day, the sky had cleared completely and everything pointed to the dew being beautiful. In the hope of that humidity, I suspected that our pair, snail and serene, would go for a walk.
I took it, I took it. Twilight... [+]
There are other avenues that go beyond organic farming. The ecological aspect, in today’s day, only means that they comply with regulations. It is a breakthrough over traditional industrial or capitalist agriculture, but it is not a destination for some. Agroecology,... [+]
More and more modern materials are being seen in orchards. This horticulturist has changed them in winter to eat sprouts in spring. Regordeta plants are snails and slugs, a tender food. But corrugated plastic tubes, five-liter water bottles... Everything is OK to keep the hungry... [+]
How many hours have our farmers spent in the misery of what comes from heaven? And those who will have to pass. You'll never lose that fear of what might happen over time, you'll hide, you'll walk away, you'll fan away, but you won't be able to move away forever.
We have prepared a... [+]
I've stared in a corner of Jacob's vegetable garden. Joxean Artze makes us cuckold by the back cover and Nemesio Etxaniz by her fold. Koldo Izagirre, Lauaxeta, Montoia, Juan Kruz Beloki, Borges or Xabier Lete are other grains that can be found at the bottom of the... [+]
The passersby we have thrown into a new world, we have had to face a number of difficulties that have made us enjoy. In the absence of a grandmother who speaks to the plants, in the absence of the image of a grandfather who is soaking at the right time… We have felt the need... [+]
In the orchard we have a crew of awesome friends. Lately we have talked about the grandmother mantangorri on the occasion of the asarre that cleanses the garage and the pajarillo. But it's not the only one, not even the only one. We have a lot of friends doing similar work.

The orchard is a unique school. There you can learn a lot. You don't have to admit a school without gardens. Exercise, food, biodiversity, cultural landscape, genetics, period, generational exchange, links between the earth and our health, aesthetics, gastronomy, ecosystem... [+]
Udazkeneroko dolarez dolareko ibileran, aurten geldialdi berri bat egitea egokitu zait. Ustekabean topatu dut dolarea. Txakolin dolarea. Lekeitiora gonbidatu naute, baratze batera. Gezurra badirudi ere, lurrekotik lotu naute Lekeitiora, ez itsasokotik.
Garai batean txakolina... [+]
Horticulture is on the surface. Someone said, if you want to live happily, put yourself in an orchard and grab. The new horticulturists around me are happier, but more tired. I am, of course, at ease, this environment that is expanding everywhere is a stimulus. This return to... [+]
Fruitua landarearen gailurra da. Sustraia, zuztarra eta hostoa bizitzeko nahitaez behar dituenak. Behar baino gehiago elikagai sortzen duenean erreserbak gizentzen ditu. Eta behin heldutasunera iritsita eskuera nahikoa elikagai badu ugaltzera joko du. Ugaltzeko landare gehienek... [+]
