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.

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.

Mäkelän luomutila is an organic farm in Oitti, run by Satu and Simo Heikkinen, the second generation working the land organically. Their fields grow wheat, oat, rye, barley, spelt, peas, and fava beans. Satu and Simo mill and sell their own flours, alongside products from around 20 other organic farmers and EU-certified organic wholesale goods, supplying schools, co-ops, and customers online. The farm also manages its forests and sells wood. Since 2019, Mäkelän luomutila has run a monthly van delivery service, letting customers pick up orders along various routes without extra freight costs — making organic produce more accessible to the local community.
