At Iijoki Organic Farm, you can experience authentic Finnish farm life and the warm atmosphere of an autumn market surrounded by nature.
During the Harvest Festival, the farmyard fills with local producers and seasonal produce. You can shop for spelt products, garlic, lamb products, gluten-free treats, traditional fish and swede pies, handicrafts and fresh vegetables. At the Riihi farm shop, you’ll also find the farm’s own baked goods, including rye bread, pies and other treats to take home. The Riihi Café serves fresh pastries and a special treat created especially for the Harvest Festival.
Meet the farm animals on guided tours led by 11-year-old Santeri at 12:00, 14:00 and 16:00. Don’t miss Vuotso, the friendly native Finnish Lapland cow! Tractors and farm machinery are also on display, while children can enjoy activities ranging from pedal tractors to Harvest Festival bingo.
Come and discover local products, meet the producers and enjoy a leisurely autumn day in the countryside.
