The first ones were ready for picking just in time to use in the preparation of golumpki, a Polish stuffed-cabbage dish traditionally made for special events and holidays. From picking the cabbage, to separating the steamed leaves, browning the ground turkey, spooning it onto and rolling it in the leaves, and then covering them with tomato sauce, the children enjoyed every step of the process. The best part, however, as you can tell by their faces and empty bowls, was eating this very special treat!
