I own a farm, farm-to-the-table-restaurant, B&B, cider brewery in the Finnish archipelago. Farm is not yet 100% organic but is aiming to become one in the NeXT 2 years.
The nature around us is that of incredible natural beauty, both winter and summer seasons! We have several boats and a quad you can borrow to explore the sea, its islands and the beautiful nature around. Fishing here is also fantastic! Artists live the uniqueness and the picturesqueness of this corner of the world.

They would learn the archipelago way of life, hunting, fishing, Finnish culture and cooking, cider making, fruit and berry farming, caring for livestock.
The next project for the spring will be building 5km of new fencing for our livestock! The work is hard, but rewarding. The help with animals is ongoing daily and takes around 3h daily.
We are completely renovating the main farm building and building a new barn for our goats, quails, chickens and ducks. Setting up fencing for new meadows. We are planting new apple and pear orchards. We are expanding our berry farming.
Help caring for the animals, rabbits, chickens, quails, milking goats, sheep and ducks. We have 4 high energy working dogs.

Room in a house we are renovating located directly at a small sea bay or a room at the brewery restaurant in the village centre. The farm offers ncredible views and short distance to the shop and the small center.
Nearest two culture rich cities are Turku and Uusikaupunki, both 1h away. Local islands have sights including coastal fortresses, lighthouses, bird and seal watching towers and tours. Islands truly are a paradise for nature lovers!

Yes. It's possible to connect your caravan to electricity and water on our farm. Only waste disposal has to happen at the nearby camping grounds.
Yes, as long as they don't harm our livestock. We have working dogs, which are used for hunting, working with the goats and who guard the farm house and livestock. For this reason, hosting other dogs will be difficult and will depend on gender and breed.
