Easter Tradition Attracts Crowds to Utica's Pulaski Meat Market
In Utica, the Pulaski Meat Market draws crowds during Easter, with lines often wrapping around the corner. Customers visit to pick up traditional Polish foods for the holiday, which are sometimes blessed by a priest in a basket. Typical items include ham, colored eggs, kielbasa, and a butter lamb. The market will be open on Saturday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. but will be closed on Easter Sunday. This tradition reflects the cultural significance of communal food preparation and celebration during the Easter season.
