Blossom Day Cruise on the Waters of Söderlångvik
In the afternoon, you have the opportunity to take a cruise on Långviken aboard m/s Minandra.
This approximately 45-minute experience takes you out onto the manor’s own waters. Seen from the sea, the estate reveals itself in an entirely new light. The cultural landscape, park and coastal meadows open up around you in the midst of the tranquil archipelago nature.

During the cruise, we enjoy the winding routes of the inner archipelago: narrow straits, rocky shores and lush green islands. Admire the beautiful summer villas hidden along the shoreline and experience archipelago life from the sea.

Book your place on m/s Minandra now!

Blommande Hacka & Kukkiva kuokka – Garden theater
A bilingual garden drama in Swedish and Finnish about friendship, betrayal, humour and healing soil.

Two women and an elderly farmer meet within the rhythm of the garden, moving through winter, spring, summer and autumn. When betrayal tears the ground from beneath their feet, cultivation becomes a way to survive, to speak, to laugh and to begin again. Among seed packets, rose bushes and a blue Dexta tractor, courage slowly starts to grow back.

The performance runs for approximately 40 minutes.

Roles:

garden grower Elvis – Ylva Gustafsson
garden grower Marlee – Marja‑Leena Björn
farmer Paavo – Ilkka Tornberg
narrator – Helena Tornberg

Script and direction:

Helena Tornberg together with the theatre group
