Green Beanie is the craft soda range from Under Ytan, a mariculture company growing algae and seaweed in Åland. The team—Joel Lindholm, Viktor Eriksson, Johan Törnqvist, and Anders Ingves—has experimented with different products from microalgae and seaweed, and this is their first line of drinks. Their Gutweed and Bladderwrack sodas are named after two common seaweeds from the northern archipelago, blended with hops, sugar, spices, vinegar, and citrus. The result is a craft soda with a subtle mineral edge, carrying a hint of the sea.

For over 300 years, the Heikkilä family has been growing fresh produce and raising livestock in Laitikkala, Pälkäne. Today, the farm focuses on organic dairy producing milk, cheese, yogurt, and incredible ice creams — all made following cherished family recipes.

Kakola Brewing Company is a neighbourhood brewery on Kakolanmäki in Turku, founded in 2018 by Peter Torniainen, Alexander Törnroth, and Eeva Torniainen. Driven by a shared passion for small-batch brewing, they focus on high-quality ingredients and a personal, hands-on approach. Their signature range draws from Nordic brewing tradition, while seasonal beers bring a more playful side, and the atelier series is where experiments take place. The brewery also runs a taproom and summer bistro, Sommar, where visitors can enjoy the full range of beers paired with seasonal flavours.

Paihalas is a brewery and blender, located in Sodankylä, is the passion project of Samuli Koivistoinen. Having relocated from Helsinki to Lapland, Samuli took the plunge in starting his own small-batch brewery of arctic wild ale. Paihalas oak-aged beers use indigenous yeasts and bacteria, incorporating local groundwater, and wild herbs and berries for flavouring. Paihalas (Páihálâš) means "local" in Inari Sámi, and Samuli strives to keep production and sourcing as local as possible. The brewery is a tribute to the ancient Kemi Sámi culture and Kemi Sámi, which was the main spoken language in Sodankylä until the 1700s.

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.

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.

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.

Tauko is a Helsinki-based circular textiles studio led by designers Kaisa Rissanen and Mila Moisio.
