Dear participants! We are pleased to announce the beggining of the acception of the works at the 15th International Art and Graphics Contest and the 5th International Cartoon and Film-Strip Contest.
At the end of the summer, when the main crop begins to ripen, the season of fairs usually begins in Belarus, where farmers bring potatoes, tomatoes, cucumbers, apples and other vegetables and fruits that are traditional for our area. But in Loev this year the harvest festival has been held unusually, because the main character was a watermelon.
The 2nd open competition of school gardens continues. What do our participants grow in their gardens? What cultures are most common or rare in participating schools in rural areas of Vitebsk, Gomel and Minsk regions?
On the last Saturday of August, Loev will receive guests at the holiday “Day of Watermelon and His Friends”. Loev District Executive Committee will support this holiday and it will bring together participants of the “Watermelon and His Friends” initiative, as well as everyone who is interested in this topic.
In School gardens, participating in the Initiative “Watermelon and His Friends”, experimental work is in full swing. By mid-June, the first fruits of watermelons appeared on the experimental sites.
