Blessing of the Earth's Fruits

In the Province apartment of Episkopi there is the blessing of the earth fruits at the monastery of Archangel Michael (Rotonta). It is an institution for now almost 20 years from the Kissamos Holy Cathedral and is continued from the village people and from the people of the nearby areas.
The villagers gather the seasonal fruits and grains and with the presence of the metropolite and other priests they are blessed, so that their production will grow. After the end of the ceremony, the local products are handed out to the attendees for free.
