CROP OVER IN BARBADOS 2019

Crop Over is a traditional harvest festival which began in Barbados, having had its early beginnings on the sugar cane plantations during slavery. The original crop-over tradition began in 1687 as a way to mark the end of the yearly harvest. Beginning in June, Crop Over runs until the first Monday in August when it culminates in the finale, The Grand Kadooment. For the entire two months, life for many islanders is one big party.
