Get to know us

We are Harold and Marij, and we are building our regenerative micro-farm
in the beautiful region of Dalsland, Sweden.
We’ve been together since we were teenagers, and already then we dreamed of a small farm, animals, and a life that was deeply connected to nature.
After years of busy careers and fast living,
we felt a clear pull back towards something more simple and meaningful.
We realised that it always came back to this:
food, nature and community.
​
We want to shorten the distance between the land and the plate.
To grow food that is fresh, ecological and truly local. Food that supports health, biodiversity and the community around us, not global supply chains.
​
Our approach is regenerative.
We work with the soil instead of against it. We use compost we make ourselves,
ecological seeds and natural growing systems.
Every growing season is a step towards a healthier ecosystem and a stronger local food culture.
​
Marij brings her background in education, a Permaculture Design Certificate
and years of experience growing food in ecological ways.
Harold adds his training as a nature guide, taking people outdoors to experience the world through hiking, foraging and learning from the landscape.
For us, food is more than a product. It is connection:
to nature, to the seasons, and to each other.
​
Our journey started in 2022, and since 2024 we have been planting roots here in Dalsland.
We are now building a micro-farm, market garden and food forest that will supply fresh, nutrient-rich food to our local area.
We want to create a place where people can harvest, learn, cook outside together,
and simply slow down. A place where soil, food and community come together.
​
There’s only one way to make change:
you begin.
And we hope you’ll join us on this growing journey.
