That March is crazy is true. This is confirmed by the many sayings, linked to the rhythms of work in the fields: ‘Marzo pazzerello, guarda il sole e prendere l’umbrella’, ‘Se marzo non marzeggia, giugno non festeggiare’, ‘Marzo non ha un dì come l’altro’ or ‘Chi ha un buon ciocchetto, lo serbi a marzetto’.

This year, March even gave us snow, and it is only in these mid-April days that spring is beginning to make itself felt…

The greenhouse harvest, therefore, began on 12 March, while the harvest in the open field started on 6 April.
