At Winterfest, you'll get to taste the cozy comfort of Ukrainian cuisine!

Borsch is a hearty beet & vegetable soup. Often topped with sour cream and served with a soft garlic bun, this soup gives a glimpse into the flavors and traditions that bring Ukrainian families together.

In 1932-1933, the soviet union engineered a genocidal famine that killed millions of Ukrainians - on the most fertile land in Europe.

This man-made famine is known today as the Holodomor.

Never again can Ukraine be subjected to the conditions that enabled this genocide.
