Endless Food Co. is a Copenhagen-based startup, founded by a group of chefs who wanted to create a socially and environmentally responsible alternative to chocolate. Their 'non-chocolate-chocolate' is crafted from carefully upcycled ingredients, including spent grain leftover from beer production, and cacao shells, which are often discarded. The team's mission is to bring positive changes to the entire industry.

Freemont Foliage is a small-scale microgreen farm based in Helsinki, run by Miles Freemont Alexander. Founded in 2023, the project grew out of Miles’ long-standing interest in permaculture and a desire to grow food right in the city. The microgreens are grown vertically under LED lights using organic soil, which is composted after use. Today, Miles supplies restaurants directly and reuses all plastic packaging for deliveries, keeping the system simple and circular.

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.

Sanna Reponen is a small-scale organic farmer in Sulkava, growing garlic across almost her entire 500 square meter plot. She also produces small amounts of oats and feed for a neighbouring organic dairy farm. Her garlic is highly sought after, often sold out before the next season even begins. Sanna keeps a low profile online and on social media, earning her the mysterious nickname “the invisible farmer.”
