Gastronomes' Food Oasis

”If the pig had the choice, it would most certainly live in the Heikkola piggery in Iitti as one of the pigs that Benjamin takes good care of” writes a well-known kitchen guru Markus Maulavirta.

The meat counter in Benjamin Maatilatori (farm product market) has also been officially rated as the best in Finland in 2001, and was also given honourable ratings in 2003.
Penna Heikkola was a famous maker of smoke-cured meat in the region.
The generations after him have refined the family tradition into a modern one, without losing the taste and without forgetting the wholesomeness.

Benjamin offers a wide selection of the local entrepreneurs' products
and good domestic farm products also from outside the region.
The selection criteria for the products are high quality, vicinity and a production manner that is close to primary production.
The peculiarity is complemented with skilfully made handicraft and organic and health products. Benjamin Maatilatori includes a cafeteria.

-"The needs and wishes of our customers form the base of our service concept. We develop and continuously look for interesting new products",
says Eila Eerola, the farm hostess.

Benjamin Maatilatori is open Thu-Fri 10-18, Sat 10-15 and Sun 12-17.
