One thing you have to get used to in Provence is that there are seasons for everything. Produce in the market and shops and certain times of the year when you do things!
In May strawberries are in abundance, in June the Cherries follow, these are the second 'batch' used for Jam & Yogurts etc.



These are the darker red ones for eating, these are from the tree in our garden- they are delicious!


June is also the 'Vide Grenier' season. Vide is to empty - Grenier is the loft or Attic - like a UK car boot but rather more sociable usualy set around the village square and close to a bar. The similarity is that the junk they sell is the same if not worse than in the UK!
