The spelt products of Birkkala Farm are genuine, original spelt. The farm has specialised in the production of organic spelt already for more than 20 years,
Finnish berries are strong and full of flavour thanks to the bright and short summer. Berries are picked up the best and the cleaniest wild berries from Lapland.
They are dried in low temperature to save all the vitamins, flavonoids and antioxidants. The result is a beautiful berry powder which is used in trifle.

The reindeer chips come from Lapland from Sallan Villiporo.
Reindeer chips are very thin and still they have a very strong taste of meat.

Pearled spelt comes from southern Finland from Birkkala farm. Spelt is one of the first cultivated cereals in human history. Spelt has many excellent nutritional properties, such as its fibre and protein content, and suitability for many people with sensitive stomachs. Spelt can be used in many ways for baking and cooking. The flavour of spelt is excellent, delicious and perhaps slightly nutty.
In Finland different pies are a traditional pastry. Apple pie is one of them.

They also know that it's time to move on. It's time to reset our food norms and upgrade the way we eat and the way we treat our planet. "That is why we came up with Meeat - a plant based food created by meat-eaters for meat-eaters but without the meat. Pretty cool if you ask us!"
