Photo of the Day for October 24, 2017

Last harvest days before Pakrou (feast of the Intercession of the Blessed Mother of God).  It is still a strongly-observed tradition in Belarus to clear the harvest from garden plots and field allotments before the feast of Pakrou on October 14 in order to ensure the the Mother of God’s protection of the land during winter.
