As fall and winter approach, we must prepare the farm. We had planned on butchering our animals in the fall, as we do not yet have facilities for winter. Anyone who visited the farm knows that our animals are very special. Ducks that wake us up better than the rooster and are best friends with the rabbits. The hens hiked up the mountain every day and returned on their own at night. The chickens could recognize their names and follow commands. All the animals were friends and while we are a farm and we love fresh meat, we decided this was not what we wanted.
Instead, we found a wonderful family with a young boy and girl who wanted to take all of our animals, together. They were so excited about the possibility of having the animals, they were squealing on the phone. So, our animals have been moved to Lindås to a new home. They joined other chickens, rabbits and ponies and will be comfortable and warm all winter.

Farewell, Solvor
Saying goodbye
Safe travels!
Off they go!
It was a strange feeling to wake up this morning to silence. It was an even stranger sight to see our empty chicken coop, and hen-less mountainside. We loved having these animals and will miss them dearly. We are so happy they are all staying together and with such a great, happy family!
BB Cafe and Store is also getting ready to close it's doors for the winter. We took advantage of all the nice days we could and now it is time to update our schedule.
