Title: Cochineal Harvest
Location: Finca El Bailadero, Buzanada
Description: “I had a little beetle, and beetle was his name, but I called him cochineal and he answered just the same” well melanie sang something like that.
The cochineal beetle was a great source of trade for Tenerife due to the red dye drawn from it, the El Bucio association has kept up the tradition and you can see a “harvest” from 11am, a FREE insight into the past.
