Many participants in Open Farm Day operate year-round. They offer farm products, tours, workshops, accommodation, catering, family events, and other local services.

On Easyfind, you can search for Estonian companies, farms, small-scale producers, craftspeople, family events and local services all in one place.

If you offer local products or organise workshops, tours or family events, you can also showcase your activities on Easyfind. This way, customers can access the information even after summer events and open days.
