Heia!
I am Stig, + 2 teenage kids living with me from time to time. I am a farmsted entusiast with a lot of plans and unfinished projekts, but too little time to manage everyting. That is why I search for someone to help and share my enthusiasm with.
I try to live of the land! I fish, gather herbs, mushroom and other plants from the surroundings. On the farm I have a vegetable-, fruit- and berrygarden, and have animals for meat, egg and other purposes (chickens, rabbits, ducks and geese. The neighbour has sheep that grass on my fields). In that way I try to create a little, self- sufficient ecological system that keeps itself going. I process and take care of all food through pickling, freezing, smoking, making sausage, drying, brewing and so on. I also bake my own bread in a wood-fired oven.
The farm itself is a typical norwegian "småbruk" consisting of several houses which have their own purposes each. Due to their age the buildings need care and reparasjon, which is part of my project.
Another important part of the experience of coming to me is reuseing, making things from scratch and practising old crafts. I have tried out many types such as blacksmithing, wood carving, wood turning, weaving, soap making and more. If those of you who come to me have knowledge of other crafts, I would like to learn and try them out.
If I find time for it, I like to spend time in nature, go for walks, spend the night in a hammock or tent, fish, paddle a canoe or kayak, etc.
Does this sound interesting, get in touch!

For my guests, I hope this will be an experience of Norwegian culture and life on a "småbruk". It is also ment as an example of living a sustainable lifestyle in the modern world.
Arbeit
I want to get help with all my tasks, such as maintaining, painting and restauration of buildings, gardening, gather and take care of food, animal care and housework.
Living on the farm is my lifestile, and I rather perfer to fokus on the joy of experimenting, trying new things and succseeding – and sometimes even failing. I do not consider that work connected to my lifestyle as labor, rather than as an endless source of new experiences. In that way I do have quite a few unfinished projects, which I grab again when I have the opportunity - and energy. The farm is my retreat from my stessful and demanding work, and I do fokus on laughter, recreation and joy while I are at home. In this way, I do decide in the morning what I would like to do that day. It is therefore not possible to say exactly what me and my visitors are going to do during their stay, besides animal care, which is a daily job. However, the different seasons of the year demand different tasks- I follow nature`s path.

Unterkunft
Guests share bathroom, kitchen and living room with me and the teenagers, but have their own bedroom. The guests eat and work together with me, but also do have access to the kitchen to cook their own food if desired. I see your visit as an opportunity to exchange both experience and culture.
Was noch ...
The farm is approx. 1 hour and 30 minutes from Trondheim and Værnes airport. I We can offer the necessary transport both on arrival and departure, plus some excursions the guests want. I have good knowledge of the region I live in, and can provide transport to the nearest public transport point. The farm itselv is quite isolated, 4 km from the nearest village/supermarked and 20 km fom the nearest town/public transport. Together with the guests I can find interesting experiences and things they want to do. There are several small towns, museums, swimming pools, Zoo with lokal animals, library, training centers, salmon fishing (own fees!) and more in the area to discover. Remeber that the distances in Norway might be longer than expected 😉

Freya and Stig really made us feel comfortable on the first day when they treated us to homemade wood-fired pizzas. Surprisingly, the pizzas weren’t even the best part. The meal variety was brilliant and being able to explore the different tastes of some more traditional Norwegian foods took the stay up another level.… read more
