Wiosna

In Polish, wiosna (vee-OS-nah) means springtime or Spring. As with every place that is visited by winter ("zima"), Poland is ready to welcome the shift in weather ("pogoda"). This change in seasons ("pory") also brings a change in foods as vegetables ("warzywa") and fruit ("owoce") become more numerous, more diverse and freshly-picked.

And don't forget the outdoor barbecue: Poles are famous for their grilled kielbasa ("kiełbasa z grilla") as well as the family or neighborhood picnic ("piknik").
