Vintage

I've been thinking about Elven agriculture and food production (as one does) and I think grape vines would work very well! Growing vines on trees may be the oldest form of viticulture

#tolkien #my vocabulary in this field is limited in english #(and in any other language tbf)#is there even an english verb for harvesting grapes??#i learned this method of growing vines is called hautain (fr) or alteno (it)#the drawing was fun!#watch this guy doing one-legged squats on a rope carrying a basket XD #he'd be amazed that you can't #one day i'll make that beech-nut harvest painting that's in my head #and it will be glorious!
