Further along after we left the Pistachio forest. we encountered another group on semi-nomads, known as Chahar Aimaq (Four Tribes).Many of these peoples are semi-nomadic in that they have permanent homes where they live and grow crops. But in the spring and early summer they leave their permanent homes and travel locally to find grazing for their animals.

Entering the pistachio forest. Pistachio trees are growing wild and naturally here. This doesn't look like what most people call a forest but, nonetheless it is a pistachio forest. In the fall when the pistachios are ripe the area is cordoned off until it is decided the harvest can begin. At that time everyone is free to enter the area and pick all the pistachios they want. Many traders are available to buy the nuts from the pickers and resell them to other areas of the country and for export.
