Description
Welcome to our paradise on earth – a sanctuary for expression, nature, and connection in Western Norway, 50 minutes outside the lovely and vibrant city of Bergen.
Are you longing for stillness, purpose, and a deeper connection to both land and people? At our farm, nestled between fjords and forest in the wild and beautiful nature of Western Norway, we are creating something unique – a non-profit cultural sanctuary rooted in human rights, freedom of expression, ecological responsibility, and community.
This farm is not just a place – it’s a living, breathing vision. A space where artists, activists, and friends gather. A meeting point for people who care deeply about the world, and who believe that change begins with presence, with courage, and with shared work.
You’ll be joining a home that pulses with life and intention:
🌿 We have horses, cats and a dog, and their calm presence is part of the atmosphere of peace here.
🌿 We host non-profit cultural evenings, talks, and community gatherings.
🌿 We work with the land – clearing paths, restoring meadows, building structures with care.
🌿 We grow ideas, and some food too.
🌿 We believe in honesty, humour, hard work and long coffee breaks.
Marthe (43), Wiggo (47) and Sarah (16) lives here, and we have lots of friends visiting, join us!
We speak Norwegian and English.
We welcome all backgrounds, nationalities, and identities.
Come as you are.
Leave with soil on your hands, stories in your heart, and maybe something new awakened inside you.
