Building the new platform to encourage communities across the country to support themselves.

Local Producers, local community The local producers have been given access to a market enabling them to sell their produce and plan for the coming growing season. By connecting our producers, we have enabled a discussion to encourage cooperation vs competition reducing price wars, with a goal of enabling complimentary crops in coming years. The Maker Day event: Brought the latest in technology (3d printing, Virtual Reality, littleBits, Makey Makey, a coding group and more) to our community free of charge. Encouraging old and young alike to think out of the box and see what technology is available. Farm Days & Children's hen and beekeeping: Dedicated to teaching our children where our food comes from, as well as how it is produced, multiple Open Farm Days were held including special events for hands on access to bees and hens. A dedicated website established to support the Resource Cafe (ressurskafe.no) where everyone has access to free food and clothing encouraging integration and social innovation.
