Study visits at Njordstorp
We welcome you to visit us. It is great fun to show you the farm and the animals and to tell you about our way of life here in the countryside.
We can show you, for example, how we: grow our vegetables, use our animals in the processes, build with natural materials, plan with permaculture, compost and build our soil, cut hay with a scythe, build fences, manage our forest, grow our trees, build our orchard and much more …
Contact us with your wishes and how many you are, and we can plan how everything fits together.
Njordstorp and the name
We at Njordstorp Permaculture Farm are self-sufficient, grow organic vegetables and fruit, and raise organic rabbits. We moved here in 2011 and have developed the farm using permaculture and the transition mindset, to become an example of a working family-sized transition farm.
The name of the farm: Njord (‘power’ or ‘strength’) is one of the Vanir and the god of the sea, weather, wealth, trade, seafaring and fishing in Norse mythology, father of ten children, of whom Freyr and Freyja were born to his first, unnamed wife, who was also his sister. Njord is the son of Nótt (mythology) and Nagelfari and half-brother of Frigg (source: Wikipedia).
