1. Describe your project, your location and its inhabitants (including animals):
I live here together with some of my children(13-29). I have a "Fellow resident", who lives in a tiny house on the farm. I have some Friends who have small cabins here. We currently have cats and chickens. Now we also have a man from Hungary (28), he have been wwoofer here 2 times (6 weeks + 3 months), in September 2025 he mooved in here. He's living in a tinyhouse, and are employed.
The farm is located in the south-eastern part of Norway, about an hour and a half south of Oslo (by car, more difficult by official transport). It's a forested area with lots of opportunities for hiking and exploring. There is also a lake nearby for swimming. I have lived here for 30 years, this summer, and I am now in the process of building a larger community on the farm with focus on sustainable living and self-sufficiency.
In the main building I live with my 13 and 20 years old fostercare-sons. I have four other kids that are grown up, but they visit a lot and might stay on the farm during vacations etc.
There are also a few other residents on the farm, in tiny houses, and other people who are connected to the farm in different ways.
2. List the activities WWOOFers will participate in and what you want to teach them:
Permaculture, forest garden design, forestry, gardening, some maintenance work, shared cooking, construction of greenhouses and hen houses - and much more. Building up a LAND-center. We have relief services for children/young people. Call it a visiting home. They live here on weekends and some holidays. Popup events. We are building up a place where we can self-rescue as a community.
Through practice, you can learn some of this: Composting, construction, weeding, harvesting, gathering, food preservation, outdoor life, building a community, take care of peoples and animals, about yourself, self-rescue in a community.
