    I don’t know whether it is true for Spain or not. I note however, that as a Camino walker I don’t own any property there … iow, any rule between two property owners does not apply to me. I never touch fruit on trees or bushes in a village or...

    Best answer yet. It annoyed me to see pilgrims picking grapes along the path where there wasn't any fencing, had they known of the chemical concoction that had been sprayed on said grapes to prevent blight and insect damage they might have left...

    Several times an older couple picking fruit in their fields waved me over to their fence and pushed fresh-picked cherries or grapes into my hands. Offers to pay for same were rejected, so I graciously accepted their generosity. The thought of...

    joramos reacted to ChrisMayou's post in the thread Low-hanging fruit with Wow Wow.
    Hence my question. Where I live (Oregon, USA), any vegetation that hangs over a neighbor’s property line becomes the neighbor’s. Is that true also in Spain? Then again, is the path sometimes on private property, so even over-hanging fruit might...

    I would never feel comfortable picking any fruit that was not mine to pick.

    joramos reacted to mochilaverde's post in the thread Low-hanging fruit with Thank you Thank you.
    Yes. But I would only pick what would eat myself immediately. I wouldn't feel any guilt picking fruit growing on public land (ie a road). When the tree is in someone's yard, I would only take a fruit if there were lots of ripe fruits on both the...

    Yes, one or two pieces that are hanging over the path is acceptable, but no more.
