I’m visiting Hurdal Ecovillage again this weekend, so thought I would post this album of pictures from the Nordic Permaculture Festival held there in August 2013! https://www.facebook.com/events/219614368452015/
Johan Swärd talked about old grains including Svedjerugen, yes this rye, an integral part of the slash and burn agriculture practised by the Svedje-Finns, is really this tall!
Svedjerug straw!
The barn where I gave my talk!
The festival produced most of its veggies on-site!
The organisers!
Prestegården from 1837 is part of the Ecovillage! I had a look in the garden for old garden edimentals!

Hazel is hardy here!
Perennial vegetables, Edimentals (plants that are edible and ornamental) and other goings on in The Edible Garden
