Pyrus salicifolia pendula - or weeping pear. From a distance the thing looks a lot like an olive tree. It produces a crop of 'completely inedible' 3cm long fruit.   The cherry orchard - they have 285 varieties being grown at Brogdale.   Dozens of potato varieties at this stall (part of the organic farmers markets going on at Union Square).   Another organic vegetable stall. The interesting thing is that sign at the back-right - locals come with their green waste, dump it here, and it goes off to be composted and some months later brought back as potting mix.   Items on display in the Ethnographical Museumincluded these disturbing specimens. The label reads   Ethnographical Museum had some spectacular photographs from a century ago, including this extraordinarily fluffy pig - and a man wearing a jacket made from this pig's mum.  Recycling bins in Segovia, including bins for organic waste!
