Bovik Organic Farm in Tammisaari, Raseborg, focuses on native livestock breeds – Finnsheep and Eastern Finncattle. It’s the largest regenerative farm in Uusimaa to raise animals on pasture, with their grazing helping maintain the region’s biodiversity and landscapes. Animals are raised for meat, and in winter they are fed organic feed and fodder. The farm also makes use of Finnsheep fur, turning it into yarn and hides.

Hauhala Goose Farm, in Anttola, is one of the largest goose farms in Finland. Everything happens on site, from hatching the chicks to slaughter and processing into pâtés and canned goods, so the geese are never transported. The farm’s 11 hectares are used for pasture and to grow their own fodder. Nothing goes to waste: blood and fat are fully utilised in the kitchen, and feathers are turned into pillows and blankets locally in Riihimäki.

Helsieni grows oyster mushrooms using only local materials, like spent coffee grounds collected from nearby cafes. After harvest, the growing medium is reused or composted back into the soil. Based in Karjaa, they also run workshops, offer advice for mushroom growers, and make home kits so anyone can try growing mushrooms themselves.

Located in Hillilä, Asikkala, Mattsson grows blackcurrants and raspberries. The farm moved away from industrial strawberry production to focus on methods that reflect their values. When in season, visitors can pick their own berries in the fields or stop by the café, famous for its pancakes. The farm’s guiding principle is simple: leave the land in better condition than they found it.

Svarfvars is an organic farm located in Raseborg. They produce organically and biodynamically grown goods for schools, kindergartens and restaurants in the capital area and in western Uusimaa – selling both their own grown vegetables, but also sell and import other organic products. Currently their focus is on growing vegetables and herbs both in open fields and in greenhouses heated with wood chips.
