How to grow beans
Put some soil in small plant pots. Put a few seeds in each pot.
Cover them with a layer of soil. Water them, and wait until some leaves start to grow.
When they are large enough, plant them in rows in the ground. If possible, plant them
on the edge of a path where they are easier to look after.
Support the growing plants with sticks. Pick the beans when they're ready to eat.

Dear listeners, students, and friends. I am glad to introduce you to the second episode of my Lithuanian podcast for non-native speakers. 

In today's episode, you will learn more about one of my favorite Lithuanian celebrations - Užgavėnės. In 2024, Užgavėnės is going to be celebrated on the 13th of February, so I encourage you to learn a bit more about it's traditions, meaning and significance.

I suggest turning on the subtitles for a more comfortable listening experience. Install Language Reactor to translate the Lithuanian titles into your native language.

Also, if you wish to receive the full transcript of this episode, please head to my Contribee. There you will find all the podcast's transcripts, longer format Lithuanian with Paulius recordings and more.
