The Farm
Wattkast apple is found on Överstu farm, located on the scenic island Wattkast in the archipelago of Turku. Today, the third generation works at the farm, which was founded in the beginning of the 20th century. The work has consisted of milk production and beef animal breeding, as well as cultivation of different types of crops such as e.g. sugar beets, onions, Chinese cabbage and new potatoes. In 1999, the first apple trees were planted, which today belong to the main cultivation. We have 9 different types of apples as well as sales of apple juice and small-scale further processing of apples. New potatoes are also grown on a small scale for direct sale, mainly until midsummer.
