#rural-france

Here in the far north of France, we are calling it "the new south of France" because we have had one of the sunniest summers anyone can remember. We've had a fair bit of rain too so the Seven Valleys where I live are lush and green, and nature has had a ball - everything is ripening; apple, plum and pear trees are bursting with fruit, big juicy blackberries are dangling from hedges, and the fields are full of bales of hay waiting to be stored.
