Description
Farm- This is a new project on a very old farm. We are talking about a pioneering project! The focus is rewilding and biodiversity. While we are also wanting to grow our own food, the well-being of the forest and other wild and domestic creatures is also super important. You can look us up on or on Instagram and Facebook.
The activities vary a lot! We are looking after the woolly pigs and horses, making fences and compost, planting trees and wooding, harvesting herbs berries and vegetables. We are making a walled garden, a forest garden with ‘fedges’, a mix of a hedge and a fence, and we are organically restoring the house and barn. But everything we produce is for our own use.
We are looking our for people with experience with horses.
This year we have a range of courses which include herbal walks, organic building, storytelling in nature, seed sharing, carbon capture in regenerative agriculture and introduction to Permaculture. There is no income coming from these courses - just to cover the costs. If you come to live on the farm you are welcome to join the courses. We would like you to be a creative part of the development of the farm.
No-one has been living full time on this farm for 50 years, so things are very basic. The buildings are 200 years old and very cute and old-fashioned. There is electricity and internet but heating is by wood stoves and cooking on gas. There is an outside toilet and the water comes from the well still no washing machine.
Since we are a sustainability project we prefer if people travel overland where possible. We are looking at the corona situation and up-dating according to the local health advice.
Local area: We are 10 minutes drive from the station and the shop, which is 1 hour from Oslo. It’s a very friendly neighbourhood with quite a lot of artists, and people pop by for a chat which is not so usual in Norway!
Accommodation: You will have your own bedroom and we will share kitchen and food-making. I work as The Natural Storyteller, so some of the time I will be away during the day and you will need to be able to manage your own time. I have three grown up children who work with herbs, theatre and sustainable transport. They will be visiting with their children, and there will be plenty of social interaction which you are free to join if you wish. There is a group of people who are supporting the farm who will also be living here and helping at times.
We also invite groups like Extinction Rebellion, the Permaculture organisation and some other spiritual groups to come and use the farm as inspiration and a place to work.
