#Finnlines

Zur Anbindung der #Finnlines-Fähre #Travemünde - #Malmö gibt es schlechte und gute Nachrichten.

Die schlechte was Travemünde betrifft: die Busverbindung vom DB-Haltepunkt "Lübeck Travemünde Skandinavienkai" zur Haltestelle "Skandinavienkai Terminal" (Hafenhaus) gibt es seit 14.12.2025 nicht mehr, weil man den Bus nicht mehr durch das abgesperrte Hafengebiet fahren lassen will.

Die gute: die Bus-Linie 50 fährt weiterhin Mo-Fr ab Lübeck ZOB/Hbf direkt zum Fährterminal mit letzter Abfahrt 20:05. (Danach müsste man an Roter Hahn umsteigen, aber das ist dann eh zu knapp für die 22:00-Fährenabfahrt am Freitag.)

Die schlechte was Malmö betrifft: die direkte Linie 32 fährt seit 15.06.2025 nicht mehr. Seit dem ist ein Umstieg von Linie 35 auf Linie 9 nötig.

Die gute: sie fährt dafür auch Samstags, passend zur Freitag Nacht-Überfahrt. Bei Planankunft 07:15 könnte die Abfahrt 07:46 ab Malmö Norra Hamnen Verkö auch gerade so hinhauen, wenn man bedenkt, wie ewig die immer brauchen, bis einen der Fußpassagierbus von der Fähre lässt, zumal der schwedische Zoll noch kontrollieren kann.

The Grand Finale (Part 2): Beer at the fire (burning the hut).

On the very last day of our project we gathered the people from the village to collectively burn the hut construction we had built as a place to meet on the rye field. The autumn storms had already knocked over one wall and now the old beams and other parts were piled up and then burned down while we all drank Finnish beer (#Sahti) made of our own rye. (The beer had been brewed by the Westphalian experimental beer brewer Ludger Schweer who has helped us in many previous projects).

Almost exactly 3 years ago we visited #Abramsgården for the first time. That visit was followed by several research stays and in August 2024 the field had been sown. And since then we returned regularly to perform, cook, bake and learn. We can´t thank the village enough, especially Per Johan Grannas and his wife Annika Grannas from #GrannasLandbruk - our farming consultant and the biggest support we could have wished for - for the tremendous backing during all the stages of the project, Sanna and Tommy Antill for the tractor, the help, the tools and for being such great neighbours, Abbe Berglund for his great harrowing job. All the other neighbours and villagers for teaching us so much about the Ostrobothnian culture and rye and especially for the participation in the project itself and our performances. We thank our hosts Dorothee Schulte-Basta and Peter Lüttge for the great trust they have placed in us. It was a wild ride!

The wood that has not burned will be used next year at the same spot for the Easter fire. Then the whole village will come together again.

LE FIN!

The Grand Finale (Part 1): Beer and bread in the bystugan.

We are back. For the last time in this project. To bring everything to a closure. We invited the village to the bystugan (building where the village meets regularly). We baked bread together with Pelle in the old bread oven, which was reactivated last year. The oven had to be preheated for three days.
The dough was prepared with our rye flour. And we served beer which was brewed for us by experimental brewer Ludger Schweer. He has already accompanied us in many projects. He made IPA and Sahti. Made from our rye flakes. It was a wonderful evening with beer, bread, friends and stories.

We are on our way to Finland for the last chapter of our project PRESERVED // Rågens rike / Finland 2024/25. After one year of learning about rye, sowing rye, watching it grow, and harvesting it we will now come to a closure. Rolling into Helsinki. From there we will head towards Vörå. Stay tuned, more to come soon.

The autumn storms were faster than us (cat edition).

The autumn storms were faster than us. Now the hut has collapsed. We hoped it would last a little longer. At least until we were back again. But in the end, it doesn't matter. In November, we will build a fire. With the wood from the hut. To close the project, together with the village. We will drink beer brewed from the rye grown in our field. And then it will all be over. But until then, there's still a lot to do.

From now on, autumn will settle over our field.

The fields have been harvested. We have ground the first grain, baked with it, made offerings to the grain spirit and appeased it. Now autumn is settling over the land. And we are taking rye flakes to brewers, flour to bakers and continue to think about what to do with the remaining 500 kg of rye that was harvested.

We will return once more in November. For the last time in this project, which has now been running for over a year. Then, together with the village, without which none of this would have been possible, we will consume what the field has given us all.

Wellen

Angeblich rasen wir mit 43 km/h über die Ostsee. Klingt nach einem großen Abenteuer, fühlt sich für mich aber eher an, als würde meine Füllwatte in meinem Bauch Polonaise tanzen. Von der rasanten Fahrt bekomme ich nichts mit, da ich intensiv die Innenseite meiner Augenlider studiere. Wenn mich jemand sucht: Ich bin das kleine Häufchen Elend, das hofft, bald wieder festen Boden unter den Tatzen zu haben. #ostsee #seekrank #finnlines #brummderbaer #plushies…

Travemünde

Seit Stunden sitze ich als Teddybär hier an der Fähre in Travemünde… Ziel: Finnland. 🚢🇫🇮🐻 Aber die Langeweile kickt härter als die Seeluft! Überlege ernsthaft den ersten Kuschelstreik der Schifffahrtsgeschichte auszurufen: Forderungen – unbegrenzte Kekse, kuschlige Kabinen-Updates und eine eigene Sauna für Plüschkameraden. Wenn das nicht klargeht, bleib ich hier… und Finnland muss auf meinen flauschigen Charme warten. ✊😂 #finnlines #travemünde #plushies…

Art meets Finnish grainfarming or It takes a village to plant a rye field.
Finnish-Rhenish crossover (part 3 of a bread trilogy).

The third part of our Rye Bread Trilogy turned to the “Onjeschwedde” – a harvest bread from our host Peter’s hometown of Mönchengladbach.

Its name means “not sweated” – once baked with freshly milled rye, still rich with its own moisture. Made from half rye sourdough and half wheat yeast dough, blended with currants and gentle spices, it carries the taste of the Rhineland harvest tradition. For this baking, our own super freshly milled (by #grannaslantbruk) flour from Iivo found its place in the loaves. This time Peter himself baked four breads – adding his own roots to the trilogy, and binding the fields of Vörå to the memory of his place.

The name Onjeschwedde (ungeschwitzt) refers to the fact that the bread is baked with flour made from freshly harvested rye. The flour is then moister than when it is ground from stored grain, which has already lost most of its moisture. It is therefore usually baked in late summer after the harvest and is only available for a period of five to six weeks. Typical toppings for Onjeschwedde are liver sausage, apple puree, sugar beet syrup, cheese or just butter. (Wikipedia)

Schären im Nebel - mit Standup-Paddlerin

Heimfahrt… fast ein bißchen schade

#JedenTagEinBild #FinnlandUrlaub #Finnlines #Helsinki

Im grauen Dunst sind zwei kleine Felsrücken zu sehen. Der zweite ist etwas weiter rechts und es gibt sogar ein paar Bäume darauf. Links neben der Schäre ist ganz klein eine Standup-paddlerin zu sehen. Ganz schwach sind weiter im Hintergrund weitere Schären zu erahnen.

The first bread belongs to the corn spirit.

For various reasons, the harvest of our rye field had to take place without us. So we were all the happier when we arrived in Vörå and were handed the first few kilos of flour, ground from the rye grown on our very project field. Philip, who always carries all kinds of ovens with him, set up his mobile baking oven and, together with Peter, our host, they baked traditional rye bread, which will later be hung up to dry. We offered the first loaf to the corn spirit*. For a good harvest in the coming year. It is now hanging on a pole in the field and we are waiting for the spirit to come and take it.

Nordic heat waves, a rushed harvest and a harvester from Westphalia

We didn´t make it back on time to Finland. Due to the recent heat wave in the north, our rye ripened so fast that it was ready before the originally calculated date and had to be harvested as soon as possible. Fortunately, the village and our hosts were there and the harvest already took place on Wednesday. Our agricultural advisor arrived with his brand new (!) combine harvester, which had just been delivered to him from Westphalia, and our photographer Kim was available to document everything for us which was a great relief.
We were connected live via video. At least that was something.

The rye was so dry that it no longer needed to be taken to the drying facility.
We now have 700 kg of rye.

Next week we will also be back.

Good bye Finland!
After finishing our project at Abramsgården in Vörå (Vöyri) we still had a few days for ourselves. Took the route through Karelia, visited many kirppituoris, were embraced by the forest, went through several storms and just boarded the ferry to Travemünde. We will disappear now in the time hole in the Baltic Sea.

Once we are back in Hamburg we will prepare the next chapter of PRESERVED // Rågens rike. Harvest!

Still on the road.
Our project in Vörå (Vöyri) Finland is over for now (to follow the project see -> PRESERVED_ScheibeundGüntzel). It all went well and we are now on our way back. From Vörå to Karelia. Most of the time I stared into the trees or listened to the wind. Tomorrow we will take the ferry from Helsinki to Travemünde.

And we will back for the harvest of our rye field in August already.

Enjoy your summer!

We see a birchforest in summer. The trees are evenly spaced. Lush grass can be seen in the foreground. The picture was taken in Karelia in Finland.

Sauna in the storm, lovers in the rye, rye porridge and a famous sauna to rent.
And we will be back soon!

Our time in Vörå is up for now. The lovers sat in front of the heart, our hosts invited us to their summer house near Vörå where we spent a day in the sauna while outside a storm was passing by, our agricultural advisor (Grannas Lantbruk) served us a most delicious ry porridge and the famous sauna that was brought from Vörå to Basel to support the band KAJ which represented Sweden in the ESC and comes from Vörå is now back in town and can be rented.

We will be back soon for the harvest. Stay tuned.

About yesterday.
Thank you all for coming. We all (including the cat) had a blast. Lovers, parents with their kids, a couple on their wedding anniversary and the cat, they all came to sit under the heart in front of the rye field.

Today and tomorrow you can find us at Abramsgården from 3.30 - 5 p.m..
Only that today due to the rain we will be in the barn next to the rye field where you can see the rye through the window.

Art meets Finnish #grainfarming or It takes a village to plant a rye field
Project update: We are back, the rye grew up to 2 meters and the Plaza has officially become a meeting point!

We are back and the rye looks great. It has been a real rollercoaster the last weeks since the rye has fallen over several times after heavy rains but as it looks like most of it has recovered and is standing again. And now the summer wind gently blows the rye which has actually grown almost up to 2 meters.

We had always wanted the main space in the middle of the field (Plaza del Råg) to become a space for the community. A space to meet, to hang out and to just enjoy the rye field. Yesterday was perfect, two neighbours celebrated their birthday on the Plaza and we all dived into the summer. It was marvellous.

We are now preparing for #Vörådagarna 2025 a week of events where the whole community presents itself. Stay tuned, more to come soon.
