“It would be really important that all actors, officials, and society have knowledge and understanding about intellectual disabilities.”
The Finnish Association for People with Developmental Disabilities also reminds us of the law.
The law states that the reasons for the behavior of a person with a developmental disability must be determined so that they can be supported.

Pasture-raised broilers
Finally, some news about agriculture.
This is the Karhula farm in Nastola.
Here, broilers are raised on outdoor pastures. There are only a few such farms in Finland.
Free-range broilers eat fresh plants and insects from the ground.
The cage is always moved to a new location. This way the birds always have fresh plants to eat.
The chicken poop fertilizes the soil and the grass soon grows back.
On the Karhula farm, broilers are raised in a mobile breeding facility.
