Located in Marttila, Murtola Hemp Farm works alongside Murtola Organic Farm, focusing on organic hemp alongside peas, oats, malting barley, and clover. The farm produces high-quality Finnish hemp for food, animal feed, and natural cosmetics. The hemp is naturally rich in protein and omega fatty acids, and growing it supports soil health and sustainable farming practices.

Sakura Oü is a quince orchard in Päka, Estonia, run by farmer Lehari Järg. Most of the work is done by Lehari himself, with one or two extra hands helping out during the summer months. Each quince is picked by hand. The orchard is managed with a light touch. Outside of the early growing season and harvest, the trees require little intervention. Young trees are supported with organic fertiliser made from chicken manure — a simple method that, according to Lehari, works like a charm.

Saloniemen Juustola in Laitila, run by Riitta and Jouni Saloniemi since 1998, has grown from a small herd of goats into a full-scale organic creamery. Today they produce award-winning cheeses and yogurts, as well as some natural cosmetics. Over the years the farm has also introduced Finncattle and a few workhorses, and Riitta is even considering adding sheep. “As long as the heart beats and tells us to keep going, we will,” she says.
