What is HortaBerry?

/ˈhor-ta/ · Greek · noun

The world of wild edible greens gathered for food.

/ˈber-ee/ · English · noun

A small, fleshy fruit. For us, the northern berries of Finland’s forests.

HortaBerry is a seasonal, functional blend made entirely from wild leafy greens and northern berries.

Under the midnight sun

All our ingredients come from Arctic Finland. Here, summers are short and cool, with days that seem almost endless, followed by long, cold, dark winters.

Under the midnight sun, plants receive light nearly 24 hours a day. Wild plants must continuously adapt to these unique light conditions, the brief growing season, and each season's extremes. That’s precisely what makes them so valuable to us.

Wild greens naturally contain vitamins, minerals, and a wide range of plant compounds, while northern berries are especially rich in polyphenols and natural plant pigments, including anthocyanins.

Hand-picked from the Finnish wild

The farm where HortaBerry’s story began lies in Northern Karelia,
deep in Finland’s forests, surrounded by lakes, trees, and meadows, far from large cities, intensive agriculture, and industrial areas.

Our team gathers and selects the plants by hand. We don’t grow them on plantations or try to recreate under controlled conditions what nature already does on its own.

We simply find, pick, and gather what grows wild in that season. This is what truly highlights HortaBerry’s seasonal character. Each blend reflects what Finnish nature has to offer at that time of year.

Freeze-dried and sealed in a pouch

After gathering the plants and berries, we freeze-dry them. This process removes the water from them while preserving their natural nutrients, distinctive character, colors, and flavors. It also allows us to bring them to you, almost anywhere.

We then pack them into small HortaBerry pouches. No preservatives and no additives. Nothing we believe doesn’t belong there.

Each pouch contains only the hand-picked plants and berries. The result is a sealed, easy-to-carry HortaBerry pouch with exactly one daily serving.

A little piece of the Finnish wild, every day.

On its way to you

We wanted to bring all of this to you just as nature created it.

Not as an extract. Not in a capsule. Not as another artificially formulated vitamin blend. Inside each pouch, you’ll find real leaves, flowers, and berries with their original colors, flavors, aromas, and naturally occurring nutrients.

The finished HortaBerry pouches arrive from Finland, then they continue their journey to you. Because we only use what the Finnish wild offers each season, HortaBerry is available in limited quantities.
When it sells out, we don’t simply make another batch. We wait to see what the next season brings.
