Have you ever been to an herb festival?

The Aegean coast of Turkey

Wild foraged herbs never fell out of favor here

Have you ever been to an herb festival?

Me neither, but they are not uncommon in Italy, Turkey, and I imagine other parts of the world.

This one is in the Alacati district of Cesme on the Aegean coast of Turkey.

It’s held in early spring and the whole town gets involved. The market associated with it is huge.

The place names are pronounced: Ala-chah-tee and Chesh-mee.
