Welcome to the Hummovaara village hall to celebrate the Saimaa Harvest Festival with local flavours, rural charm and a warm sense of community.
Hummovaara, located in Kitee, is a vibrant village of around 150 residents, known for its strong sense of community and active local life. The village was named North Karelia’s Village of the Year in 1999 at the Kajakka 2000 event – and with good reason.
At the heart of the village stands the Hummovaara Village Hall, a former school whose educational activities ended in the 20th century. Today, the building is owned by the local village association and serves as a shared gathering place and a venue for a variety of community events.
During the Saimaa Harvest Festival, the village hall warmly welcomes visitors – at least on Saturday, you can enjoy seasonal local food, baked goods, and heartfelt hospitality in the company of villagers.
More details about the programme will be announced soon.
