From today until Sunday, Samokov is hosting the Raspberry Festival and the National Exhibition of Raspberry Producers, BTA reports.
The event provides an opportunity for growers to showcase their varieties and innovative equipment, including tractors, machinery, and smart irrigation and fertilisation systems that support raspberry cultivation in mountainous and semi-mountainous regions.
Producers from Samokov and across the country will also present a fresh harvest of raspberries, blackberries, blueberries and strawberries, as well as juices, jams, marmalades, lemonades, wines and other delicacies.
The Raspberry Festival will conclude with a farmers' and organic market. There will also be a culinary show featuring raspberry-themed dishes prepared by chef Ivan Saramandov, as well as a rich programme of folklore and cuisine presented by local cultural centres. There will also be a concert by Mihaela Fileva and a performance by actor Krasi Radkov.
