I'm a fulltime farmer participating to all tasks of the farm. I've
been a member of Elämän värit since the very beginning. My tasks
within this society include sewing of the kettle holders, aprons and

other associations as well, for instance The Youth Assosiation of Venekoski, The Amateur Summer Theatre of Venekoski
and The Rural Women`s Assosiation.

I'm a farmer and I have been doing handcraft since I was a

I'm a world traveller, currently studying at Otaniemi (Espoo). In
this society I'm a casual worker consulting in IT-matters and
participating in marketing events.
Tarja Pietiläinen
I'm a farmer at a dairy farm. Creative and social activities interest me and so Elämän värit is a natural working environment for me. I'm
the secretary of the society and I enjoy selling and marketing the products.
The warehouse of our products is at my home, by the lake Kuuhankavesi.
Heidi Wikström
Handicraft has been a part of my life since the early years. I became a
