Harvest Festival "Garden Stories"
Summer flew by quickly, rustling with the breeze.
Autumn is looking out the window and raining with frequent rain.
The doors were opened by the wind,
She unfurled a fan of leaves,
I collected birds for the journey,
She brought us gifts.
(Autumn included)
Hello my friends!
I'm glad to see you all.
We haven't seen each other for a whole year,
And today we met.
I brought you a treat -
Not candy, not cookies.
Fruits, vegetables, rowan -
They contain a lot of vitamins.
And now I’ll ask you children:
How did you work in the summer?
Maybe they helped the adults
Or were we just relaxing?
Now I'll wave the leaves
And I will return time to the past.
(Autumn scatters leaves and children dressed as vegetables run into the hall to the music)
Vegetables lived in the same garden.

Soot.
Onions and potatoes don’t get into the okroshka,
You will be looking for strawberries in vain.

They snuck into the garden
You won't see a harvest for centuries.
Weeds scatter throughout the hall.
The weed will destroy the garden.
Who is not afraid of work,
Choppers in hand and forward.
Song “Battle with the Weeds” to the tune of “Stump’s Song” 74
Today is the most difficult day.
Line up, children, over the rows.
Today is the most difficult day -
Today is a battle with weeds.
We'll give each of our friends a hoe -
After all, there will be good guys among them.
We will free the vegetables
And the weeds will disappear.
When the last enemy has fallen,
The trumpet played the victory.
(says Burdock)
Only at that moment did I realize
How few of us are left?
Puzzles.

If you raise it with skill.
It's time to dig it!
Come out, kids!
Song "Antoshka"

Who started the fuss here?
The Cabbage Butterfly and the Slug run in, holding a head of cabbage in their hands.
Baba. Give it to me!
Sl-n. No, give it to me!
Baba. I won’t give it back, don’t pester me!
Sl-n. I'll climb into the cabbage

There is food and comfort here.
Sl-n. Give it to me!
Baba. No, give it to me!
Sl-n. I won’t give it back, don’t pester me!
Ved. Before they were screaming
That their birds heard.
An old blackbird flew to them
And I solved this issue.

So the garden has been harvested.
Once the whole thing is over,
Feel free to have fun.

White boletus mushroom
Hidden and silent!
Just try and find:
Come and have a look.
The birch forest will go
Every knowledgeable mushroom picker.
There will always be some soup there
Delicious boletus.
Printed gingerbread –
How elegant!
We won't eat them right away,
Let's take a look first.
Brown eyes
We stood by the pine tree,
They stood, smiled,
They were waiting for someone.
Let's make a fan out of leaves,
Bright and beautiful.
The wind will run through the branches,
Light and playful.
And obediently following the wind
The leaves are flying away.
So, there is no more summer -
Autumn is coming.
Someone is pulling cobwebs,
And the foliage flies easily.
Who doesn’t look anywhere now -
Gold glitters everywhere.
The maple and linden trees warmed up,
Who is it without words?
Scattered so many suns
On the path near the houses?
Between the green branches deftly
The plum seems to have a black eye,
Red-cheeked carrot
It climbs out of the garden for show.
There is a blue haze in the sky,
Formation of flying cranes...
This is a young autumn
Celebrates his holiday.
Autumn walks and wanders along forest paths,
How many fresh branches the green pines have!
How many scarlet berries does the forest mountain ash have!
Waves grew right next to the path.
In lingonberries on a green hummock
A mushroom mushroom grew up in a red scarf.
The wind blew up in the forest clearing -
Spun an aspen in a red sundress.
Sleepily pouring out of the cloud
A light rain of mushrooms.
Warm, like a ray of sunshine,
So gentle and affectionate.
Something whispers to put you to sleep,
It doesn't ring at all in puddles.
Resting in the trees,
There is a quiet rustling in the leaves.
Moisture slowly, calmly
They drink from the earth and forest moss -
Every other day under the blue pine
A regiment of mushrooms is growing.
It contains chanterelles and boletus,
Russula, moss mushroom,
Milk mushrooms, mushrooms, honey mushrooms
And a handsome boletus.
Golden leaves are falling and flying,
Golden leaves cover the garden.
There are many golden leaves on the paths,
We will put together a good bouquet from them.
We will place the bouquet in the middle of the table.
Golden autumn has come to visit us.
Pickled cucumber! ...Have you read it?.. Isn’t it true - your mouth immediately began to water?...
Meanwhile, for many, in recent years, the taste of “pickled cucumber” has been spoiled by pickled crap from glass jars from supermarket shelves. All sorts of brands, with big names like “Village”, “Russian Ambassador”, and even the completely pretentious ones - “Gherkins”, one way or another, almost all of them were created by the hardworking inhabitants of the Celestial Empire. And they have about the same relation to the phrase “pickled cucumber” as a spectacled snake has to glasses! It seems - but not so! Pickled cucumbers (namely salty, not pickled) are real only barrel salted.
And the real Vyatka pickles are Istoben! For the fifteenth time, the Cucumber Festival is taking place in Istobensk.
Type these two words into a search engine and what will pop up?!
What a Suzdal! ;o) Far-fetched, without traditions, popular print festival...
Well, nothing, nothing!... Let's blow our nose at this Suzdal event! The Vyatkas are clever people! Moreover, today our governor has called the buddies of bloggers from all over Rus' to Istobenskoye!... So they will now promote the event with the whole united team...
And I was like, “I went out for a walk...”, I ended up there by accident, but I decided to take part in covering this event, especially since it turned out to be a worthy holiday...
This photo was taken from the Internet, the rest are from the author
Istobensk. This village has stood on the banks of the Vyatka for more than 600 years. The exact time of the appearance of the cucumber industry in this ancient village is unknown. But it is certainly known that the Istoyans are hardworking and enterprising people. A comfortable climate by local northern standards, the availability of good clean water, and the hard work of local gardeners contributed to the development of the traditions of barrel pickling of cucumbers in Istobensk. By the way, it was the location on the shore of the once navigable Vyatka that brought Istobensk the glory of the cucumber capital of Vyatka. In those days, barrels of cucumbers were loaded onto ships right on the shore. At spring fairs throughout the Vyatka land, and even in the Urals, they sold Istobensky ones!...
I arrived in Istobenskoye early. But the guests were already greeted at the entrance to the village. They greeted us, congratulated us on the holiday and presented us with a card with a program. Everything is as it should be!..
The first blogger with a camera was hiding in the bushes near the stage!
On the shore, the men slowly hungover.
Merchants laid out their goods
And the OPON officers took positions
Everything is “in business”, I’m the only one hanging out idly with a camera, and asking the local people...
Barrels for cucumbers, as they say, inspire respect! Traditionally made from spruce planks sawn from young, knotless trees. They say that if there is at least one pine plank in the barrel, the cucumbers may turn sour. The barrels, carefully riveted by local craftsmen, are soaked in cold water and scalded with boiling water. Just before pickling, some borage plants fumigate them with juniper smoke for disinfection.
What is the “trick” of Istobensky salting? Yes, it seems like there is no secret! The cucumbers are selected to be medium-sized, 10-15 cm. Cleanly washed dill, currant leaves, garlic, and horseradish are placed at the bottom of the barrel. For strength and special “crispness” of the cucumbers, oak leaves are added. For the same purpose, some add a sprig of juniper, which is called “heather” in the Vyatka dialect. Every 2-3 layers of cucumbers - another portion of seasonings. Seasoned cucumbers are poured with cold salted water. How much salt? None of the borage growers interviewed gave exact figures. The majority answers - “by eye”!... Next, the cucumbers are kept under pressure for a day or two, after which the resulting free space is filled with fresh cucumbers, on top - a layer of the already mentioned spices, and the barrel is topped up with brine.
But then...Probably this is the very trick!
Closed barrels with cucumbers are immersed in cold running (ideally spring) water in special pits, called here “rivers.” These holes are dug in coastal streams and springs. It is spring water that gives Istoben cucumbers their unique properties. The point is not only, and not so much, the purity of spring water, but the constancy of its temperature - about +4 in winter and summer. Some people store barrels in wells. It is important that the barrels do not float, so they are prudently pressed down with weights. Under these conditions, the pickling process with fermentation elements occurs, similar to sauerkraut.
How long does it take for cucumbers to finally “pickle”? But they will be in time for winter just in time! The ice above the barrels will be opened, the barrel will be taken out, uncorked and…. Imagine how the frosty fresh air will smell like pickles!
In the meantime... For now, only lightly salted cucumbers.
With hot potatoes!...
People are arriving, and trade has become more brisk!
On stage, amateur artists and Valenchuk begin to entertain the people...
Everyone is waiting for the late Tsar and the delayed Governor. Crumbling and reshaping the holiday script as we go.
Beresnev, Bykov and the wedding general present, twice Hero of the USSR, pilot-cosmonaut Savinykh, saved the situation as best they could with their speeches.
Finally, N.Yu. Belykh, accompanied by a flock of tame famous bloggers, arrives and immediately runs onto the stage to ritually pickle a barrel of cucumbers.
Bloggers are wasting no time tweeting about it!
The Whites throw a barrel of cucumbers at them and quickly take them somewhere into the bushes...
The people continue to celebrate in awe and satisfaction...
In the evening there is a big rock-folk concert, fireworks and fighting! ... ;O)
And in the morning everyone is here;
In addition, a short photo report about the performance of the club of historical reenactors
Very often used at various events funny scenes. Miniatures about vegetables are extremely appropriate for the Autumn Ball or Usually they resemble short theatrical fairy tales.
Problems for skits about vegetables
Such interludes, performed at children's events, broaden their horizons, because kids learn something new from the world of plants. about vegetables can also relate to relationships between people. This happens because Potatoes and Cabbage, Carrots and Onions, Beetroot and Pumpkin seem to come to life and acquire human character traits.
Thus, funny scenes about vegetables also cultivate a variety of positive qualities in children. Although sometimes they can make fun of negative character traits.
Autumn ball is a fun holiday!
Not only kids, but even high school students can act out funny scenes about vegetables. At the Autumn Ball, it is quite possible to organize a sideshow competition on this topic, presented by different classes.
An interesting quiz will be held in which the audience must name the characters who participate in the skits. Let the actors not use costumes to create a certain difficulty in guessing. The riddles can be based on the fairy tale “The Adventures of Cipollino” by Gianni Rodari.
Impromptu fairy tale
You can put on a funny performance without any preparation. Impromptu staging looks very fun. Anyone from the audience becomes an artist. They are given roles and words. You should go on stage immediately after the presenter names the character and give your speech.
Pumpkin: “Well, leave me alone... Let me sleep!”
Tomato: “Is it really my fault that I’m so attractive and charming!”
Cucumber: “And at the other end of the village the vegetables will be more beautiful...”
Cabbage: “I would like another fur coat for the holiday. Who would give it, eh?”
Turnip: “Well, my grandfather imprisoned me... If I free myself, I will take revenge!”
"A difficult situation arose in citizen Grandfather's garden. He wanted to harvest the harvest. He approached Pumpkin. Pumpkin: “Well, leave me alone... Let me sleep!” Well, just like how he himself screams in the morning when his old woman sends him to work in the garden. It turns out that he raises his hand.
Grandfather sighed and went to the Tomato. Tomato: “Is it really my fault that I’m so attractive and charming!” Grandfather is ashamed to raise his hand against him - really, what is his fault? He himself was once a handsome man. Or wasn't it? Or not quite handsome? It doesn't matter now!
I decided to pull out the turnip. Turnip: “Well, my grandfather imprisoned me... If I free myself, I will take revenge!” Grandpa was completely freaked out. Yes, there was such a thing in my youth, together with a classmate we bullied, and the young Grandfather then blamed all the blame on his friend. Jumped aside as if stung!
Rushed to Cabbage. Cabbage: “I would like another fur coat for the holiday. Who would give it, eh?” Immediately, the old man’s neighbor, to whom he was knocking wedges, came to mind - she also kept demanding his fur coat.
Then he decided to indulge in salads. I went to the garden bed where I was planting cucumbers. Cucumber: “And at the other end of the village the vegetables will be more beautiful...” That’s all I heard from afar. Apparently, the well done Cucumber galloped off to the other end of the village. Just like Dedok himself in his youth.
So Grandfather remained hungry. And the moral of the story is: treat others the way you want others to treat you."
“Lazy cucumber bush” - a skit about vegetables
A funny interlude reveals the meaning of the presence of tendrils in some plants, with which they cling to support. At the same time, the fairy tale ironizes laziness, one of the most common human shortcomings. Many funny skits about vegetables aim to instill in children hard work and a desire to learn new things.
Artists portraying fairy tale heroes first sit with their hands clasped around their knees and their faces downcast. Then they raise their heads and look around. Hands slowly spread to the sides. Then they rise to their full height. Only one boy remains sitting on the floor.
The gardener comes, rejoices at the seedlings, waters them from a watering can. Then she places a support near them. Gym racks are suitable for this. The owner admires her work and says: “It will be very convenient for my cucumbers to cling to the support with their antennae! They will crawl along it up towards the sun, and the fruits will not lie on the bare ground.”
The largest Cucumber:
Well, well done guys!
Bequeathed by the fathers:
For support, cucumbers,
Well, cling to your mustache!
All Cucumbers grab the supports with their hands. And one - Lazy Cucumber - continues to sit.
The largest Cucumber:
Well, you, funny little guy,
Why don't you obey?
Or are you not a cucumber?
Are you lying on the ground?
Lazy Cucumber:
I'll do what I want!
I don't need your advice!
The largest Cucumber:
Well, okay, I’ll keep quiet...
Then, my friend, don't howl!
The sun was shining, the rain was watering the cucumbers. The bushes grew, fruits appeared on them - beautiful green cucumbers.
Gardener: “Oh, what wonderful cucumbers I have grown!” She pretends to collect fruits from the bushes in a basket. And then he comes across a Lazy Cucumber lying on the ground.
Vegetable gardener:
Oh, what is this?
There are fruits on the ground...
And they are completely rotten
From heat and water...
I'll pull it out soon
So that everyone doesn't get sick!
She “pulls out” the bush and pushes it off the stage. He resists and shouts: “I don’t want to! Leave me alone! I want to lie on the ground some more!”
Presenter: “So because of his laziness, the Lazy Cucumber died, he was unable to produce good tasty fruits, he was unable to make friends with his neighbors. After all, only those who love work live together and have fun!”

Appendix No. 1
CUCUMBER
India is considered the homeland of the cucumber, where wild species are still found. In India, the cucumber came into use at least 3000 BC. The name "cucumber" in India is associated with the name of an Indian prince who allegedly had 60 thousand children, which, in all likelihood, is due to the large number of grains in the cucumber. IN ancient Egypt images of cucumbers are found in temples. There was even a “Cucumber City” in Greece. The ancient Romans grew cucumbers in greenhouses and salted them in tubs. One of the most common dishes in Russia in the 16th century was “black ukha” - a soup in which meat was boiled in cucumber brine mixed with various spices and roots.
Onions have been cultivated by the Egyptians since time immemorial. In Ancient Greece, onions were considered a sacred plant, where the bulb was perceived as a symbol of the structure of the Universe. Famous townspeople in Ancient Greece considered it indecent to eat onions because of their persistent pungent odor. The Romans consumed it annually, and to avoid a pungent smell, they ate the onions with parsley leaves and walnuts. From the Romans, onions moved to Germany, where heroes who distinguished themselves in battles were decorated with onion flowers.
In Ancient Rus', onions were considered a universal remedy that protected and healed all diseases.
