Step into the everyday life of a traditional reindeer farm in Savukoski by creating your own handmade souvenir.<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Souvenir Workshop is a warm and atmospheric experience where you will hear stories about reindeer and life on a traditional reindeer farm. This hands-on activity offers a deeper understanding of local culture while allowing you to create something truly personal to take home.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Experience<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The workshop is a wonderful group activity for families, friends, and small groups. Each participant gets to create their own souvenir using the available natural materials. Your finished piece might be, for example, a keychain, a button, or a small decorative item.

During the workshop, your host Reija will explain the origins of the materials and share stories about reindeer and their life in Savukoski. In winter, participants may also have the opportunity to visit the reindeer in person.

During the workshop, coffee and tea are served along with a small local sweet treat, such as traditional cardamom buns or berry pie.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Materials & Sustainability<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The materials used in the workshop typically include reindeer (antlers, hide, and bone) and fish (skin and vertebrae). All raw materials are collected naturally as part of the natural cycle of life on the farm \u2013 for example, when reindeer shed their antlers.

We aim to produce souvenirs in a non-toxic and environmentally responsible way, respecting both nature and traditional practices.<\/p><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

Why This Experience Is Special<\/h2><\/div><\/div>\n\n\n\n

The Souvenir Workshop is a deep dive into the life of a traditional reindeer farm in Savukoski. It is a rare opportunity to spend time together creating something by hand and to take home a genuine piece of Lapland that cannot be found anywhere else.
