Voice in off: “He did not make the world, in seven days; he neither rested the seventh day; but, Juanito Orange was able to create an orchard, with lemons and oranges, which might well seem to the Paradise: the Guadalhorce Valley. Where to find sweet lemon, if not ?”.
….music………………….
Juanito Orange (A farmer): “Also, at the time, it was called "The Valley of the Lemon", because, here, the weather, that we have, is very good with lemon, because lemon is a citrus, which does no want very cold, above all it does not want jack frost . Formerly, there was more lemon than orange, and they are coming back, coming back, again, to put lemons, because they have realised that lemon has been many years with quite bad prices; but it seems to be recovering a bit ....”.
………………………..music………………………………………….
Juanito Orange: “This is the sweet lemon. Sometimes, the sweet lemon deceives, because it looks like inside one thing outside and another inside; but, look at the colour ..., orange lemon and, in the end, what comes out is lemon outside and like orange, inside”.
…………music………………………………………………….
Juanito Orange: “This trunk is implanted here ... this is lemon .... and the bottom is .... sour orange, the sour is also set, because it is an orange, that endures much ....; although it does not rain, it does not die ...., taste it ....... I too ..... how strong, how good !. That is a graft, which I think was made by the people, many years ago. I do not think juice was used; my wife uses it to put a little bit in marmalade”.
………………………music…………………………………
Juanito: “This is Lunero (related with moon), I do not know if you notice that it has flower, it has small lemons and it is called so because it flowers, each new moon”.
…….music………………………………………….
Juanito: “A dwarf lemon ... This is the "lemon Quad": it is like a tangerine, but in small, Right? ......... This is here, before us; this is the "Religious Amantis" and, when they are born, they are tiny as small ants and, if the leaves have aphids, this is the first food that the Amantis grabs”.
………music……………………………….
Juanito: “Thank you very much !, Until another day!”
Juanito: “Vincent: I have to ask you one thing .....”
……………music…………………………………………….
Vicente (Vincent) Rubio: "I have to ask you something ..... Do you like figs ?, Have you ever eaten figs.....?. Here, In October, October or November, there is a small storm of water and….Do you know what happens?, the fig cracks itself and is opened……And that is the flower. When you com back, in July, more or less, I will already have figs…..”
………………….music……………………………………….
Juanito: “More lessons, another day…..”
…….music………………
