Peltola Farm has been in operation since 1847, with a creamery running since the 1940s. Based in Suonenjoki, they produce artisan dairy including traditional blue cheese and churned butter. Animal wellbeing is central to their approach, and their cows are fed fodder grown on the farm — including red clover, which the team believes adds depth and character to the flavour of their products.

Our mise en prep t-shirts are made by Pure Waste, a circular fashion brand founded in Helsinki in 2013. They produce garments from 100% recycled fibers, mainly cotton, using 99% less water and 50% fewer emissions than conventional textiles. All manufacturing takes place in India under strict ethical standards, repurposing cotton by-products from the local garment industry.

Tauko is a Helsinki-based circular textiles studio led by designers Kaisa Rissanen and Mila Moisio. They designed our service shirts from old hospital linen, naturally dyed light pink with onion skins. Originally a fashion brand focused on ethical, timeless clothing, Tauko now shares their knowledge of making, caring for, and reusing textiles through publishing.

Helsinki Distilling Company was founded in 2014 by friends and whiskey enthusiasts Kai Kilpinen and Mikko Mykkänen. It became the city’s first distillery in over a century, based in Teurastamo, Helsinki’s old abattoir district. Their range includes gin, local aquavit, applejack from Finnish apples, “lonkero,” and rye and single malt whiskey. The team works with circular-economy projects, turning spent mash into biogas, while their Tahko distillery focuses on organic production and local ingredients.

Tukkutorin Kala, in Helsinki, is a fishmonger, café-restaurant, and wholesale seller founded in 2016 by fish expert Karl “Kala-Kalle” Huttunen. Most of their products come from local Finnish fishermen, with a few carefully selected items from overseas. They offer a wide range of fresh fish, shellfish, roe, and cured or smoked products, with their own smoker fed with alder. The café is open to anyone for a coffee, lunch, or a blini.
