Packed rooms at farmers’ events

Two farmers’ events were organised at the beginning of the year. The Kokemäki event was held at the village house, and the Lapua contract farmers’ event was held at Hotel Lakeus. The room was packed at both. In addition to the strategies of Berner and Chemigate, Finnamyl and Lapuan Peruna’s plans for the coming year were presented – and our partners were also given the opportunity to present their coming activities. Seed potato farms and machinery and equipment suppliers were among the partners present. Thanks to AVR, FinPom, Grimme, Myllymäki Peruna and Ropa.

A well-earned retirement

“In case someone doesn’t know what being retired is, it means that you can do what you like in all the peace that you wish for, when you’re old enough.”

Hemulen, from the book Tales from Moominvalley (1962), Tove Jansson

Tauno Henttinen, Finnamyl Grandchildren are an important part of Tauno’s retirement.

“I spend the morning with my grandson Onni in the clubhouse, then in the afternoon there’s still some time to go kick sledding on Lake Köyliönjärvi.”

Arto Sillanpää, Lapuan Peruna

“This is how my time passes these days – and how coffee tastes in the forest.”

Ossi Paakki, Finnamyl Ossi’s days now consist of property maintenance with his grandchildren, as well as skiing trips.
