Lepaa 2019 Finnish horticultural exhibition

The Finnish late-summer horticultural exhibition Lepaa is one of the oldest horticultural exhibitions in Europe. The event was first held in 1964. From 1986 to 2004 it was called Puutarhatekniikka. Because people kept calling it the Lepaa exhibition over the decades, it was officially renamed Lepaa in 2004.

The exhibition takes place in the manor park of the Lepaa unit of Häme University of Applied Sciences. The organisers are Kauppapuutarhaliitto, Hämeen ammattikorkeakoulu and Lepaan Oppilaskunta ry. This year it was held on 15–17 August 2019.

At the exhibition we presented two types of leaf and lawn vacuum: one for a small-scale gardener and one for a company offering leaf collection services. Our leaf and lawn vacuums were at the stand of the Finnish company Konevel Oy. Konevel Oy is one of several companies through which our leaf and lawn vacuums can be bought. The exhibition was visited by more than 9000 people.
