LOVELY GENEVA COUNTRYSIDE - RURAL

This week, I am continuing to show you the beautiful countryside that lies all around our village. There is so much to see and discover in that area of Geneva...

This part of the canton is dedicated to agriculture. Around Veyrier and Troinex you'll find vineyards, fields (wheat, corn, quinoa, etc), big greenhouses (which are used for growing, fruits, vegetables, herbs and plants). Most of the regional products which you can buy in local supermarkets come from there.

Enjoy the tour!

Your photo are always so stunning! I just love looking at them. Your composition is outstanding. I like how you add them to your blog with your recipes. I ended up doing a separate blog for cooking from my Aqua Sunday blog which has my photos and is about where I live and have been.
