Green City Farm is an educational field located at the Perho's campus in Malmi, Helsinki. The farm is dedicated to ecological food production, exploring the links between farming, gastronomy, and community. Students and collaborators learn through hands-on work, gaining a practical understanding of responsible farming and food systems. Produce is grown for local restaurants, with a portion also available through their farm shop for anyone interested in cooking with locally grown vegetables. Those curious about farming can take part through internships and practical work in the field.

Vihreän Oksan Verstas is a horticulture and farming education programme for young people aged 16–29, based at the Kumpula Education Garden. Working in partnership with the City of Helsinki, they offer rehabilitative work opportunities for those interested in gardening or looking for a next step. Alongside the programme, they grow and sell vegetables, herbs, and flowers, as well as plants, jams, and other house-made products.

Viltgården, based in Fagervik Bay in Inkoo, works with wild game from Finnish forests, mainly deer and moose. The meat comes from local hunting teams in Uusimaa and Varsinais-Suomi and is cut and packed by their own small team at Viltgården’s slaughterhouse in Inkoo. Their approach is rooted in careful, selective hunting and a deep understanding of wildlife populations. By working in step with the forests and their inhabitants, Viltgården offers an ethical, transparent alternative to farmed meat.
