Harvest festival

  Yesterday, the 30th edition of Plougoulm's yearly harvest festival "Gouel an Eost" was blessed with glorious sunshine.
The historical parade featured local children dressed as early 20th-century onion-boys.
Mr François Séité, president of the "Association des Marchands d'Oignon de Roscoff et de sa Région,"  marching regally in his "Confrérie de l'Oignon de Roscoff" costume.
An iconic triad: a Union Jack adorned with onion braids hanging in the company of a striped jersey inside Olivier Le Sann's stall.
