Great photo for the prompt! Do they use it for anything (fertilizer?) afterward?

Amy, I read that this is the stuff use to make grappa. It is also used for fodder, fertilizer and to produce a natural dye. I should have added this explanation to the photo but I'm being very lazy this morning.

I agree with Kim too. :)
Have a great weekend!

Hi Maria, ah...so that what happens after . . . Great photo theme selection and interesting to see and learn what happens after the grapes are pressed.
Have a great weekend Maria!
