Large variety of apples.
In the first half of the 20th century, one of the most important agricultural routes in the Arbúcies Valley was the cultivation and commercialization of different varieties of apples. This crop involved two very important social aspects to take into account: a new distribution of work in the field and a new remodeling of the territory.
The rabada, the quadres, the camosa, sang de llebre, beauty of Rome... are names of ancient apples; varieties of the past, non-commercial but that have perennialized, resisting the passage of time and fashions and that a retired of Arbúcies, called Emili Soms, is dedicated to rescue and recover in his pomary.
In a few terraces, 40 varieties have already been saved and still find new ones.
