Winter holidays and changes in the crew (written on 17.12.2018)

We are still delivering veggies on Wed 19.12.2018 and then we start our winter break. The first delivery next year will be on Wed 9.1.2019.

We wish everyone a calm and peaceful end of this year and good start for the next one!

The end of the year brings also changes in Pikkunuppu personnel. Niina will head to new adventures as her studies to become Rosen method practitioner are in good speed.

Pjotr will continue as earlier, so the Pikkunuppu vegetables will be available to you as previously.

“I would like to thank all the lovely people I have got to know during these years in Pikkunuppu. It has been a pleasure to produce and deliver vegetables for you. Now, it is time to start something new. I keep the good experiences and memories with me.

All the best, Niina”
