We pursue to saving natural resources for the future generations. We don't fly to travel fairs to attract mass tourism to our small village. We do little marketing on Instagram and TripAdvisor. We recycle waste and our customers can also recycle their waste when they visit us. We protect the surrounding nature in many ways, e.g. by reporting on the birds in the area for bird monoring in Finland, by banning insect repellents that work with nerve agents at our reindeer farm. On our close-to-nature visit, we tell the visitor through stories and concreteness how important nature diversity is. Our guests learn alot about the nature during the visit.
Our guests can buy handmade crafts from us instead of mass-produced goods shipped to Inari from far away. Our reindeer farm visit is a unique and one-of-a-kind product. The visit is based on an existing authentic local home, our family´ s nature connected life, local culture and the work of a professional reindeer herder.
