Rye harvest

Rye harvest is one of the most important and difficult works. If you aren't able to cut rye on time, your family will be short of bread all year round. If you don't sell grain – you won't be able to buy newer implements or pay taxes.
On the 26th July 1975 the event, which brought back the ancient rye harvest customs, took place. It was organized by musical-folklore club, active in the museum at that time
