In this special Connect feature, we explore Vaisakhi through its cultural heart - from Punjab’s golden wheat fields and the joy of harvest, to the shared labour, folk traditions, and vibrant village melas that have shaped its place in Punjabi life. This episode reflects on Vaisakhi not simply as a date on the calendar, but as a living celebration of hard work, memory, community, and festivity.
Through the rhythms of the land, the voices of folk imagination, and the atmosphere of old Punjab, The Story of Vaisakhi: From Fields to Festivals traces how this beloved festival continues to live in collective memory across generations.
