In folk calendar Michaelmas marks the end of outdoor chores and the beginning of indoor activities. On the 29th of September we can discover what our ancestors did during the darker part of the year and which chores had to be done before spring.

When the autumn field work and grazing are over, it is time to celebrate properly. Onion and fish day will be part of the harvest day of the Setos and Old Believers. As both communities are famous for their vegetable gardening and fishing skills, there is a fair where you can buy the best Peipsi onions, various fish and other goodies. In the farms you can get acquainted with Peipsiveere and Setu food culture and handicrafts. There is a Seto prayer, followed by a celebration with Seto traditional singing "Leelo" and dances.
