My Story
I am a certified trainer and advisor who spent my childhood on an Austrian farm. I have studied agriculture in different countries for a total of 11 years. I have worked on various farms and operated a Finnish organic poultry farm and managed my own livestock farm.
Based on this journey, I have gained strong expertise in my areas of interest: carbon sequestration and renewable agriculture, through interest, experience, and education.
We have two Holistic Management trainers and advisors in Europe, and I am the second of them. Holistic Management is a farm planning and management system developed in North America. Holistic management brings together all aspects of agriculture. It takes into account economic, ecological and social aspects in farm management. Holistic management enables more careful use of farm resources and sustainable development of the farm.
At Mantree Farm, we have also been rewarded for our good work with the following awards:
Thank You to the Producer Scholarship (2022)
Environmental Award (2022)
Jaakko Kolmonen Food Culture Award (2022)
I am genuinely interested in helping you find your way to make your farm more productive in all areas.
