Does the idea of petting sheep and alpacas sound appealing to you?
Embark on a dream trip to the countryside for animal lovers starting from Seppälä Sheep Farm in Miehikkälä. The farm raises the original Finnish Landrace sheep breed, whose wool is used to make lovely products. The farm staff will introduce you to the farm and its residents. If you wish, you can participate in the daily routines of caring for the sheep or simply admire the farm’s fluffy inhabitants.At the Seppälä farm shop, responsibly produced wool products such as yarn, rugs, fur insoles, leg warmers, and toe wool are available for purchase.
