The youth wing of the "Tell the Truth" campaign - "Zmena" - conducted an action in Yakub Kolas square in Minsk.

Traditional Belarusian vegetables - potatoes, carrots and cabbage - were used for the installation. The hand-written posters explained the idea of the artists: "Don't be a vegetable!", "Stop sitting on a garden-bed!", "Freedom cannot be grown in a kitchen-garden!".

The action ended in no detentions, informs the web-site of the Tell the Truth campaign.
