Additional peculiarities of the municipality:
Velyka Pysarivka is located in the territory of Okhtyrka district of Sumy region. The community is rich in natural resources and has a strong tourist potential. The main type of economic activity is agriculture. Before the full-scale invasion, more than 40 farms were fully operational in the territory. The main types of crops grown are wheat, barley, corn, sunflower, soybeans. In addition, livestock farming (pig breeding, dairy farming); cheese making, and apiary maintenance were also developed in the territory.
Velyka Pysarivka residents know how to work fruitfully and have a good rest. Many talented people live and work in the municipality. So, we have 4 amateur groups that have received the title of "folk ensemble". Their participants use costumes that are almost 300 years old in their performances.
In addition, the municipality has talented poets and artists. During the full-scale invasion, two collections of works of our residents were published: the collection "Velykopysarivshchyna Poetychna" and "Velykopysarivshchyna Art". For several years now, even in evacuation, the municipality has been holding the traditional "Borshch Festival", thus preserving and popularizing the cultural traditions of our territory. Currently, a collection is being prepared for publication, which will be called "The Best Borscht Recipes from the Housewives of the Velykopysarivshchyna Community".
