A mother of many children and a farmer from the village of Kondratyevo, Vyborg district, Svetlana Martsinovskaya, won the International Photo Contest “Woman Farmer: Faces of the Earth”. The picture, in which a woman is captured at work, was recognized as the best in the nomination “Labor as art”. This was reported in the administration of the Leningrad region.
In addition to international recognition, the farmer had an unusual harvest. Svetlana organized in her native village the holiday “Her Majesty Pumpkin”, the main event of which was the cutting of a giant vegetable weighing 321.5 kilograms. Pumpkin called “Cassowary Egg” was shared with the locals, and the treat was enough for everyone.
Svetlana specializes in growing giant vegetables. Thanks to a social contract, she built a greenhouse where she grows vegetables, flowers and seedlings for sale. In addition, the farmer conducts lectures and excursions for children and adults.
Now Martsinovskaya, together with her fellow villagers, intends to make the pumpkin holiday an annual tradition of Kondratyevo.
