To start with I want to welcome you to read and follow this blog. If you are interested in the nature here near by the Arctic Circle or want to get familiar with our everyday thoughts and solutions towards a better organic way of life, join here.
Organics has been an important part of my life for about twenty years. When I got my first and second child I wanted to give them a happy childhood and moved to the countryside and worked on a biodynamic farm. This lead me to study agriculture and my education as a Bachelor of Natural Resources has certainly been useful in my career as an organic entrepreneur. Nowadays my work is with organic marketing and "Napapiiri Organics" brand.
Although I love to work with animals, plants and the soil, I need a deeper insight. And philosophy has been one of my favourites since school times. Now I have had a pleasure to concentrate on that too by studying philosophy in the University of Helsinki. So, this gives perspective to my writings here. There are a lot of issues in organics and the natural way of life which are complicated and need to be analysed and seen from different perspectives. I don´t want to claim that I have good answers but as philosophers usually I may have good questions, which can help each of us to find our own answers and solutions.
We who are deeply involved with organics and feel that it will have an important part in the future of our planet are scattered around the world but sometimes we can feel lonely in our own society. My wish with this blog is to get in contact with you others out there in different parts of this planet and share my thoughts and inspire discussion and promote development for the future, where we want our children to live in.
The 17th January in Espoo, Finland where there has always been at this time at least minus five degrees Celsius and the land white with snow but now some plus degrees, cloudy, grey and rainy. We certainly feel the climate change!
