Nature-based Activities

Nature has time for you - and welcomes you here

Our Well-being from the Farm experience offers empowering, nature-connected moments for all ages. Inspired by Green Care principles, the activities support mental clarity, reduce stress, and foster genuine connection – to nature, oneself, and others.

Each visit is private and tailored to your group's needs and the season. Our peaceful lakeside farm provides the ideal setting: calm encounters with sheep, unhurried walks in the forest, simple farm tasks, and meaningful seasonal rituals.

A typical 4-hour visit may include:

• Welcome moment and introduction in our historic log house

• Gentle animal interaction and light seasonal farm chores

• Homemade lunch, served indoors or outdoors

• Quiet forest or lakeside walk – listening, grounding

• Creative activity such as baking or crafting

• Shared tea and reflective closing by the fire

Seasonal variations include berry picking, swimming or fishing in summer; harvesting and herb bundling in autumn; and snowshoeing or indoor crafts in winter. Every experience is guided with warmth and care.

We are licensed providers of Nature Empowerment-based activities and proud members of the Green Care Finland network. At Saariniemi Estate, nature is not just a backdrop – it's a partner in well-being.
