The date harvest season in the village of Saqqara represents a significant event that connects the lives of the residents to agriculture and community work. This season spans from preparations that begin as early as December to the harvest in August. Farmers rely on about five varieties of dates, most notably the Al-Hayani. The harvest season is the main source of income for families, where workers earn daily wages ranging from 300 to 600 Egyptian pounds. It is a celebration of an entire year's effort and sacrifices. Gathering the dates requires high skills and involves risks, especially when climbing the palm trees that can reach heights of over 20 meters. The process depends on generations' expertise and team cooperation, as the fruits are carefully harvested from the trees and transported to local and external markets. Despite its hardships, the season reflects a spirit of patience and challenge. It is a time of joy and celebration, during which Saqqara village comes alive economically and socially. The date is more than just a crop; it is a symbol of livelihood and continuous effort, firmly linked to the land and local heritage of the community.
