On September 15 – 16, a traditional IV Canning Festival was held in Zaporozhye on Mayakovsky Square.
The “Zaporizhzhia Charm” public organization became one of the winners of the social initiative “We are the city” competition. Thanks to the grant won, Zaporizhzhia activists organized a festival of canning, which became a small but significant tradition for the city.
The main goal of the festival is not only to show the skill of housewives from all over the region, but also to hold a volunteer action. Some of the treats presented at the festival were sent to charity.
– Most of them will go with volunteers to the Joint Forces Operation (JFO) zone; some of them will be transferred to orphanages. This year the festival has already been firmly established. Many participants found us on their own – the fame of the festival of home canning went all over Ukraine. This is good, but we are not going to be satisfied with what had already been achieved. We will develop further – we need to think about how to increase the number of food courts, because not everyone had enough space. I am grateful to all the participants and believe in our future cooperation, ”- says festival organizer Natalya Babenko.
Visitors to the festival could get a treat for every taste. At the event, various author confitures were presented. Vegetable preservation. Decorated with carving, as well as various oils, candied fruits, honey, sauces and spices.
