English: Brubekken is a smal dairy farm at the north west coast of Norway. We have goats and cows and make cheese, butter and cream from all the milk we produce. We got 8 cows and 20 goats. During summertime (2 months) we move into the mountains where we live with our animals at our summerfarm in Torbudalen. We also got some chickens and some vegetablers. Everything we produce we sell at local markets and a few shops. Our philosophy is agroecology. We produce everything based on local renewable resources. The farm is 50 m close to the sea....and we have always a lot of fish on the dinner table. The reason why I focus on agroecology is that I have been working for 10 years with La Via Campesina with foodsouverenity and agroecology. We like to think global ....and act local. Im about to give the farm to a younger generation but I will still be here to help and to teach the new farmer, Stein Brubæk Norsk: Jeg heter Stein og driver et lite gårdsbruk med ku og geit, eget meieri og egen støl om sommeren. Jeg foredler alle gårdens produkter av melk, kjøtt og grønsaker for direkte salg til forbrukere. Ost, smør, rømme, kjøtt fra ku og geit, spekepølser, egg og litt grønsaker. Jeg driver etter agroøkologiske prinsipper. Jeg er i ferd med å overføre gården til en ny driver, en ung mann på 21 år. Vi har hver vår leilighet i gårdshuset og vi har plass til flere. Ikke minst har vi behov for å omgås andre siden vi bor ganske isolert. Det er alltid fint å dele på arbeidet, matstellet og meninger om mangt med andre. Jeg synes det er svært interessant å formidle norske landbruks og mattradisjoner til folk fra andre kulturer. Tenk globalt.....handle lokalt. Det er melking av ku og geit morgen og kveld. Siden vi foredler av rå melk er det nesten hver dag en type foredling. Vi yster kvit ost og vi koker brun ost. Vi separerer kumelk og lager rømme og kinner smør og vi lager gammelost av skummamelka. Hver torsdag er det Reko-utlevering. Enten i Molde, Kristiansund eller Ålesund. Mange lørdager er det Bondens Marked i Trondheim. Så er det selvsagt arbeide med innhøstning av gress, grønsaker, frukt og bær. I juli og august flytter vi til Torbuvollen, og bor på setra i ca 2 mnd med ku og geit. Vi starter med frokost kl 06,00. Formiddagsmat ca kl 10 etter at melking, rydding og foring av dyra er unnagjort. Lunch ca. kl 13 og middag etter kveldsmelking ca kl 19. Om sommeren kan jeg tilby eget lite hytte med oppholdsrom og 2 soverom ca 30 m unna hovedhuset. Men det er også mulig å ha eget soverom i hovedhuset som har 3 bad og to kjøkken. Mye av våre interesser er knyttet til naturen vi bor i. Her er rike muligheter til å fiske, gå turer både sommer og vinter. Vi jakter også.

An incredible and deeply enriching experience from start to finish. The environment is wonderfully organized, welcoming, and reflects a genuine commitment to great work and hospitality. Unfortunately, I had to leave early due to personal matters that required my attention, but I am left with a fantastic impression of the place and everyone involved. I truly recommend it and would have loved to stay until the end.

I learned a lot about the development of Agriculture in Norway, and quite a few interesting things of how agriculture in norway was like in the past. My time on the summerfarm was very interesting and I was able to learn to row on the lake. Even tough I'm used to different hygiene standarts when it comes to production and cleaning production gear I found my stay to be an enrichment and most likely would come by for a visit if I happen to visit Norway again.

I spent three weeks on Stein's farm. The farm is set in wonderful surroundings, by the fjord and close to the beautiful village of Angvik. The main task is to milk the goats twice a day but there is also work in the cheese production, like cleaning and packing the cheese for selling. We visited the summerfarm in the mountains and joined Stein to the marketplaces in Molde and Kristiansund. Stein knows a lot about milk transformation, cheese production and food production in general. His main goal is to defend traditional and organic farming in Norway and all over the world. It's also possible to fish in the fjord and having walks up to the mountains. I recommend a stay at the farm and thank Stein, the dog Kajsa and the farm employee Miro for having welcome me.

Stein welcomed us to his farm for two weeks. It was a very enriching experience. Milking the goats morning and evening structured our days and was a rewarding activity. Making cheese, butter, and other products, as well as selling them at the market, provided valuable knowledge. Stein's personality was the highlight of the stay: he never missed an opportunity to talk about Norway, agriculture, and local customs. He was captivating. Stein was attentive to our curiosity. He didn't hesitate to take his boat out to show us fishing in the fjord. A huge thank you for his generosity. Also a special thanks to Miro, the employee, who helped us and taught us a lot.

Stein is really great! I felt very welcome from the start. Stein is very friendly and he knows a lot about his work and many other topics. It’s really nice to listen to him. I also really appreciated that Stein always asked if I wanted to join him when he was going somewhere, which allowed me to see a lot more. The work on the farm was enjoyable and gave me a great experience. Thank you for having me. I was able to see more of beautiful Norway and learned a lot about life on a farm.

Stein welcomed me and my 12-year-old son on his farm in the middle of the winter. He has a lot to share and knowledge to pass on, whether it is about the history of Norway, agricultural policies or the story of his family who lives on the farm since 1650..! His political responsibilities in "La Via Campesina" land workers international union, on top of the farm work, make him very busy and there is lots you can do to help. Between the animal care and the transformation of milk into butter or into "Brown cheese" (Great Norwegian speciality), the discovery of his family's traditional dishes and the environment of the fjord, it was a really meaningful and interesting experience. The employee who works on the farm is very nice and has integrated us well into his tasks. The farm is located in an incredible environment, on a fjord between the mountains, where one can walk Kaysa, his lovely haunting dog. Stein also invited us to discover cross-country skiing and net fishing with him, but unfortunately we had to leave the farm earlier than expected for health reasons. Thank you Stein for sharing so many things and allowing us to discover all that!
