Flavourful experiences
- Baking in a country kitchen
We bake together in our lovely country kitchen. Based on Hälsingland's raw materials, traditional pastries and culinary tradition, we choose simple pastries according to our own taste.
This Christmas: bake and decorate gingerbread. Assemble and decorate your own gingerbread house - to take home to your family. You'll be welcomed by crackling fire baskets and flavoursome mulled wine. Cosy up in front of the tiled stove in the lounge.
Stories about the farm, the village and Christmas traditions in Hälsingland.
- Communal cooking
With a dedicated chef. We work with several local chefs who know Hälsingland's local produce and food crafts. Story about our flavour heritage, and fäbod culture. We eat dinner in the upper hall by the light of candles, kerosene lamps and a warming tiled stove. In summer, we set the table on the terrace and enjoy the food in the evening sun with a view of Ljusnan.
Meet nature, yourself and each other
For those who want to feel good in friendly interaction with nature. Strengthen your self-leadership and meet each other in real life. We can put the screens aside and see the sun's reflection in the Water of Light and talk while walking on the soft paths of the forest
- Guided walk in natural forest
We'll head to nearby nature reserves and explore the forests of Hälsingland. We can also hike directly from Norrgården to the untouched forest at Vedberg with beautiful views. Depending on the time available, we eat a packed lunch or cook by an open fire
- Meet yourself and each other with presence in the forest
A very slow walk, where we practice presence by activating our five senses. We find what we can see, hear, feel, smell, taste. We walk a bit in silence, a meditative walk where we practice being with ourselves and nature.
We test trust by leading each other in pairs, with one blindfolded. In the darkness of late autumn - walk alone in silence a distance on a forest road without a flashlight. Experience night vision, meeting yourself, in safety and presence.
Finish in community around a fire, where we bake breadsticks and talk.
Contact us for a personal dialogue and booking, and we will help you to a great experience
