MRS, KUCZMA KEPT BUSY IN GREENHOUSE If anyone in Schreiber is short of a dill pickle, or two, Mrs. Stephanie Kuczma is the person to borrow from! In her larder she has, at a rough estimate 150 quart jars of her famous dills = a close estimate would likely bring the count over 200 jars, because already she's been sharing with friends. cont'd ...... ing in. | Mrs. Georae G Lakehead University .

Toronto, Ontario October 6, 1972 In fact, looking at the store of food, grown and preserved in various ways, Mrs.Kuczma could open a speciality food shop at any time and have the entire town on her doorstep. One admires, in a bemused fashion a walk-in cooler, commercial size, two large deep freezers, two-or is it three? ordinary fridges, all filled with both cooked and raw food from her greenhouse and garden. Fruit concoctions include innumberable kinds of jellies, jams and conserves, with some just plain for pies and other desserts. Dills, parsley and other herbs are there, along with a seemingly endless var- iety of tomatoes, beets, cabbage, cucumbers, onions and cauliflowers in pickles, not to mention some special Ukrainian dishes. One secret of Mrs. Kuczma's unfailing success with dill pickles is concerned with a good rainfall - the water hoarded and strained - failing this, her son John must drive some miles to secure fresh spring water. What, one wonders does Mrs. Kuczma do with all this food, for just herself and her son, and why does she work so hard in growing and preserving it? Be- cause, she says simply, she grew up and lives for many years on a farm, where a garden was both a necessity and a yearly triumph and its harvest to be saved for the long winter months. Now, of course, it is because she delights in shar- ing with others, in giving to private functions, her friends and relatives far and near, and donating to various local bazaars and like occasions. Her greatest pride is her greenhouse, a bower of green growing vegetables and flowering plants. Mrs. Kuczma came to Schreiber from Fort William in 1947 and from then until 1954 operated the Travel- ler's Home - the restaurant behind the CPR station, where her cuisine and service was famous. And 'her girls', now scattered the length of the country remember with affection the training. they received while working summer holidays and other vacations as her waitresses. continued page 16 ......
