3 generations living on a farm with active milk and meat production from in total of around 130 cattle in addition to active forestry. We do not run the farm organically in that sense, but we are actively involved in facilitating nature with the help of over 60 bird boxes on the farm, unique and well-thought-out forestry, as well as the active creation of amphibian ponds with, among other things, a permit from the Norwegian Environmental Protection Agency for the release of newts. We are a hunting-free farm.
For those of you who love nature, and especially birds, forest and animals, this is the farm for you, with a rich diversity of species right outside the door. Here there are rare owls and birds of prey, depending on the season, and many small birds that nest in the summer. There are usually deer, badgers, foxes, squirrels, weasels and martens in the forest, and rarely deer and moose.
The day does not have to be very long, but will largely consist of helping in the barn with cleaning and feeding calves/young animals, doing some field- and forestwork, packing wood (its 2-3 hours every day sometimes) and helping in the sawmll. You will be a part of a team, and together we will have to get the job done.
My days are really full and different from day to day, but we try to eat breakfast and dinner together, but otherwise I am out and about a lot, so no two days are the same. Basicly this means that i buy all the food, but that you must be able to make it yourself..its just the way it is..
Very connected to nature, but also music, concerts, a little bit sports (football, Mr Haaland is from Bryne, were we normally do our shopping ;) .
