PAHIYAS “Festival of Harvest and
Blessings”
May 15, 2012 Tuesday
The Pahiyas Festival is held in honor of San Isidro Labrador, the
patron saint of farmers. It is an annual observation in thanksgiving for
abundant harvests. Quezon folk decorate their homes with the choicest produce;
they string fruits and vegetables together and make the “kiping,” the
traditional Pahiyas décor of many colors. These are leaf-shaped wafers of rice
makeup and looks like Spanish tacos; these are used to liven up halls and
walls, and more craftily turned into arangya (chandeliers) that lighten up the
town on fiesta night itself.
The literal meaning of “pahiyas” is actually decorating houses
with kiping and vegetables. Aside from this, however, fruits, ropes and straw
hats are also utilized. The decorating frenzy starts sometime before the actual
fiesta, and the air is abuzz with healthy, friendly competition over who will
have the best ornamented house that year. Whoever does gets a reward from the
local government.
Other things to try out while there are the pancit hab-hab (which
is eaten off banana leaves), the Lucban longganisa, the kiping that's actually
edible and is said to be best dipped in vinegar. Also, visit the Lucban Church
and put on some straw hats
