Kanuma

On Kanuma, cattle and cattle sheds are cleaned and decorated. These cattle help us in many ways - we get dairy products from them, they help us in the farms, they are used in generating oil from the oil seeds, etc.,
It is also said that, it is on this Kanuma that Lord Krishna lifted the Govardhana mountain to save people, cattle and many lives.
Food items with Sesame seeds (nuvvulu - aresalu) and Urad dal(minapappu - Garelu) are made on this day.
