Residents of the foothills supported the fighters at the “Pykva-Fest”

In the foothill district of the Stavropol region, a charitable gastronomic festival "Pykva-Fest" was held.

The administration of the municipality said that the festival was accompanied by a rich entertainment program. For visitors prepared thematic photo zones, contests, quests, sports and creative numbers.

One of the key surprises was the tasting of pumpkin porridge on cereal and rice. To prepare five thousand servings, the cooks used a fruit weighing about 30 kg.

And educational institutions of the district, with the participation of pupils and their parents, held a fair at the event, at which pumpkin was presented in various formats: from classic pies, casseroles, juices and gingerbread to author's dishes. Guests were offered a kebabs of pumpkin, as well as a snack “pumpkin under a fur coat”. The menu also included roulettes, rolls, pancakes, waffles, smoothies and cakes.

Every ruble collected at the fair will go to the aid of those who defend our Motherland today. We are preparing another batch of humanitarian cargo and are confident that such holidays strengthen the connection between the residents of the district and our fighters. This is our common contribution to the victory, commented the head of the district Nikolai Bondarenko.
