Garden tours in Økouka

We’ve opened the garden many times over the last 25 years as part of Økouka (organics week) and before that as part of Økologisk Hagebrukskampanjen (the organic gardening campaign). Last night (18th September 2024) was the first of two garden tours in my Edible (Forest) Garden this week and once again a great group of folk had signed up. In addition, Beatrice from NIBIO took part to make a short film with focus on soil as part of the EU project Prepsoil. There’s still a few places left on the second tour on Saturday at 11 and there will also be a garden tour at my main focus at the moment, the Væres Venners Felleshagen (community garden) at Ranheim on Sunday at 1400 (just come along if interested). All tours are in Norwegian with English plant names if necessary.

This red admiral butterfly flew over us whilst I talked about biodiversity in the garden!
