La Tria de Mulats, the traditional annual fair of horses. Photos by Jordi Borràs for La Mira.

On Saint Edward’s Day, the 13th of October, the mare farmers of Molló and the Camprodon valley go to get their herds. For Saint John’s Day [24th of June], they took the herds to graze in the grass fields of Rojà, a mountain in the Canigó massif, at the other side of the border that divides Catalonia since the Treaty of the Pyrenees.

On the days before Saint Edward’s, the livestock farmers take their herds of mares and young horses to the mountaintop of Costabona, near Espinavell. On Saint Edward’s, they bring down the herds to the village, where they display the horses, and the farmers deal which animals they want to sell or buy.

This is an important day, a day to do fair, contest and, most of all, to meet with the rest of mare farmers and cow farmers who come from all the Ripollès and Vallespir areas. The Tria de Mulats is festivity, passion and compromise for the land/Earth. Borderless. A very alive tradition that reminds us of who we are, where we come from and what country do we want to be when we grow up.

Inktober day 10: Home de neu

Home de neu (snow man), also known as "Gegant de la neu" (Giant of the snow), comes from a story told in the comarques (Catalonia's internal divisions) of Ripollès and Cerdanya.

The story goes that and old childless marriage had to get on their house's roof to take down the snow that had accumulated after a seven day long snowstorm. The snow fell in front of the door and while the husband worked, the wife made a little snowman, which she after dressed with girl clothes. This snowman came to life, to the couple's utmost surprise. They decided to raise the snowgirl as their own child, but unfortunetly when spring came, the snowgirl melted like the rest of snow. The next winter, they tried again, this time but making a boy. But like the snowgirl the year before, the snowboy also melted once spring came.

The couple tried year after year, but the result didn't change, when spring came by the snowkid would melt without exception. One year, though, they decided to make a giant snowman, so with his size and strength could help with chores and heavy lifting until spring came. But once it came to life, the snowgiant ripped off his clothes, ate all the food the couple had and then fled to the snowy mountains, where snow never melts. Now the snowgiant lives there all year and only comes back down, running on snowy tops, when the first snoflakes start to fall.
