Join us for our final special event of the season and witness traditional harvest activities from the period of 1892-1930. Celebrate Alberta agricultural roots with an old-fashioned threshing bee complete with vintage farm equipment and grain deliveries to a historic elevator.

Other historical activities include flower and herb drying, feather stripping, making kapusta (sour cabbage), grinding wheat, quilting, and canning of produce from the museum’s garden.

The Harvest Food Festival offers a unique culinary experience featuring traditional Ukrainian food and treats from local food trucks and chefs.

Food demos will take place at 12:00 PM, 1:30 PM & 3:00PM, including sessions from Chef Brad Smoliak from Kitchen by Brad, and Johwanna Allen from Mojo Jojo Pickles!
