UKRAINIANS IN TERVALAMPI

4/2022 Ongoing documentary

The photo series tells about the Tervalampi estate located in Vihti, which in a short time became emergency shelter for Ukrainian refugees in the spring of 2022.

The owners of the estate, Alexandra and Niko Ahlqvist, are agricultural entrepreneurs who bought the estate from the city of Helsinki in 2020. In May, about sixty Ukrainians lived in there. Half of them were children.

Tervalampi estate is a private area. A private area sign has had to be put on the door, because curious villagers have been coming to the lands since the refugees started arriving in March.

In addition to Ukrainian women and children, there are also men who work in the estate's agricultural work.
