The “Days of Harvest” festival is aimed at preserving and transmitting the traditions of Russian culture, the Russian countryside, and specifically the traditions of the harvest.

On this day, the guests of the festival present the full cycle of this holiday - familiarity with the tools, their preparation, going out to the field with songs, mowing, threshing, grain blowing. Guests can personally take part in the harvest process: from mowing to baking bread and cooking kutia in the oven. The bread from the field is removed (looks at) the way our ancestors did - manually. The program of the event includes:
