Landmatura in Schlierbach

Mr. Weingartner as reaper in Schlierbach, Austria

At the farmhouse of Mr. Weingartner in Schlierbach, I took a lesson in cutting hay with a traditional scythe. Interested people can also take a class learning about some facts regarding agriculture. Though this is mainly an offer just for fun the lessons are pretty informative.

So for example one learns to milk cows and to draw a distinction between different sorts of crops. The class is humorously named ‘Landmatura’ (Land = agrarian, Matura = Austrian Higher School Certificate).
