English term or phrase: grape picking
picking grapes in france to make wine
Hans Moerkerk
Norwegian translation:drueplukking
Explanation:
Technically, 'picking' is simply plukking. The suggested terms use 'høste/høsting' which is the rather more industrial 'harvesting. Tiny difference, I know, but while grape picking, you can pick a handful, but when you're harvesting, you take the lot.
