On Easter Monday, Villa Fontane celebrates the feast of the Annunziata.
The lupines, on purpose prepared by the inhabitants of the fraction, are
offered to the people.
Giovanni Ciucci has also documented photographically the preparation
of the lupines.
Among the demonstrations more followed it is the traditional "Cuccagna" (Abundance).
Rossano is only a dot up there!
The work and the repeated attempts to climb on the tree of the Abundance, perfectly smooth and greasy with some fat to make it more slippery, they make even more inviting the grip offered by the top, richly furnished of "all sorts of good things".
Great it is the shout for joy at the dreamt finishing line, suffered,
and finally reached.
