Taimitarha

Taimitarha is a Finnish toponym that may refer to one or more places in Finland. The name combines taimi, meaning sapling or young plant, with tarha, meaning garden or enclosure, and historically denotes a site associated with plant cultivation, nurseries, or forestry-related activity. As a place name, Taimitarha is typically found in rural or semi-rural areas and can denote a small village, a district within a municipality, or a geographical feature such as a farmstead.

The usage of the name reflects Finland’s long tradition of forestry, horticulture, and agricultural nurseries. In historical records, sites bearing the name are sometimes described in relation to land used for raising young trees, seedlings, or fruit trees, though contemporary localities with the name may have diversified economic activities.

Today, places named Taimitarha are generally small and sparsely populated. They are not widely known beyond their regions, and information about individual Taimitarha localities is typically contained in municipal or regional archives. The name also appears in maps and land registries as a historical or current place designation.
