The SEGADORES â Crew â Guardians of an Ancestral Tradition
The SEGADORES â Crew, known locally as Los Segadores, is one of the most symbolic and respected traditional groups in our community. Their work represents the ancient rhythm of the harvestâwhen men and women joined together to reap the fields by hand, guided by strength, unity, and the blessing of the land.
This crew is more than a team;
it is a living expression of heritage.
Their coordinated movements, traditional clothing, and the tools they carry reflect the hard work of generations who depended on the harvest for survival. Each step, each strike of the sickle, and each chant echoes the gratitude offered to the earth for its abundance.
The SEGADORES Crew honors:
⢠the cycle of planting and gathering
⢠the dignity of manual labor
⢠the wisdom of ancestral agricultural practices
⢠the community spirit that holds our town together
During local festivities, especially around the celebration of San MatĂas ApĂłstol, the Reapersâ Crew performs to keep this tradition alive. Their presence reminds us of our roots, our identity, and the deep connection between the people and the land.
A cultural treasure worth witnessing and preserving for generations to come.
