Leningrad cheeses, exclusive Belarusian roll and delicious honey from Altai: what AgroGus bought at the fair in EXPOFORUM

From August 25 to July 3, Agrorus-2023 agricultural fair takes place at EXPOFORUM Convention and Exhibition Centre. The new mascot of the project, white and fluffy AgroGus, came to the fair to check what it has in store for the demanding guests, learn the secret of the Vyborg pretzel, and fill his belly to the brim.

A goose is a flying bird, but our protagonist decided to take the subway to the fair. It’s more fun that way. Especially because there is a shuttle bus from Moskovskaya station (house No. 197 on Moskovsky Prospekt) running every 20 minutes which took him directly to EXPOFORUM absolutely free of charge.

Ordinary geese nibble on grass, but ours likes delicacies. So the white bird went straight to the farmer’s cheeses from the Leningrad Region. Representatives of a private cheese factory offered to taste cheddar, caciotta, cream cheeses, and sagrada cooked according to Spanish technology.

“Gourmet cheese is one of the exclusives. It is cooked by our cheesemaker using a secret recipe known only to him. There’s morbier that goes great with all drinks. They add ash from fruit trees to it,” said the factory representatives.

The secret of cheese was not revealed even to the goose, but he learned all the secrets of the Vyborg pretzel. Apparently, the whole trick is the rich history and recipes that pass through generations. By the way, besides pretzels, the Vyborg bakery makes cookies with nuts, buns, and much more.

Agrorus had traditionally gathered farmers from all over Russia. Arkhangelsk residents treated the goose with pickled mushrooms, fresh berries, and willow herb tea, which, according to them, helps against all diseases in the world.

AgroGus couldn’t take its beak off the Altai honey. Buckwheat, linden, acacia, pine honey, oleoresin, propolis. And also – wild bear honey, extracted right in the dense forests by brave Altai wild honey pickers.

Hospitable Belarusian brothers fed the goose to the brim. They even had a truly exclusive thing in store.

“Among Belarusian delicacies, polendvitsa is a must-try. The meatloaf is smoked on cherry wood shavings, so the flavor is incredible. And real Belarusian lard will go well with it,” said farmers from the brotherly Republic.

But Agrorus is not only a belly feast. Here you can find handy products for the household. They were brought by masters from Udmurtia.

“All our products are handmade without exception. We make all of our kitchen utensils and toys from the hardest woods – walnut, ash, mulberry, catalpa. We order the material from the Caucasus. There are spoons, cutting boards, purses, bark baskets made of our Siberian conifers, birch and juniper. Our pride is walnut chests and jewelry made of birch bark with natural stones,” said the guests from Izhevsk.

The goose also turned out to be an expert gardener, so he stayed in the rows of seedlings for a long time. He especially loved the incredible beauty and fragrance of the hydrangeas.

“Phantom variety hydrangea can grow up to two meters in height and width. A very beautiful variety is Samara Lydia. It turns bright maroon in September. And most importantly, hydrangeas do not require special care, they are completely unpretentious and can grow on any plot,” said the nursery owner.

You can visit the harvest festival, meet the fluffy Agro Goose, hug him, appear on a photo with him, and fill your fridge with all the best delicacies from August 25 to September 3. On August 30, Agrorus will be joined by a fair of farmers from the Leningrad Region. So there will be even more of the natural, delicious and healthy treats. Fish, meat, cheese, mushrooms, honey... Any food market would envy EXPOFORUM on these days. Hurry up before the goose eats it all!
