Fruitcorso

Every year in September, a festival called Fruitcorso is held to celebrate the harvest of fruits produced in the Betuwe area, Netherlands .
Fruit Corso, which means 'parade of fruits' in Dutch is celebrated on the second Saturday of September in the city of Tiel, a province of Gelderland.
The festival includes a parade of vehicles decorated with fruits and vegetables.

  2. That's so very similar to our Rose Parade here in California. Such intricate art and if you stand from a distance, it's hard to really see what it's made of.

  4. I'd imagine they couldn't put these together very early in the week before the parade. And it would be sort of icky to dismantle. Very cool, Veronica.
