+|Description=The recreational use of the forests is based on the traditional right of public access, known as Everyman’s Right. The Everyman’s right is the principle that grants the universal right to everyone to use forests for collecting berries and mushrooms, recreation and other outdoor activities, as far as they do not create damages or disturbances to landowner or land. The Everyman’s rights are regulated by several different laws (listed below).
-Pickers can enter and collect berries and mushrooms freely in all Finnish forests.
+NWFP harvesting right is in harmony with the Everyman’s Rights. That means that everybody is allowed to pick berries, mushrooms, flowers, dry twigs and branches, cones and nuts found on the forest floor in all forests, as long as these products are not protected species. However mosses and lichen and fallen trees are not allowed to be collected on land owned by somebody else. Digging land or leaving litter in nature is also prohibited. Finland’s Penal Code mentions the most important natural products which may be collected on other people’s land. Collecting of many other plants too is allowed unless they are protected under the Nature Conservation Act.
