Food Studio / Oslo
A wide range of wild plants are edible. Many of these plants can be found in cities.
This fall a truly remarkable collaboration was started within the realm of conscious food production and consumption. The innovation project TRIPPEL, a program for social intervention and green growth, gathers roughly 15 private, public and volunteer key players from TINE, Lerøy and Nordic Choice Hotels, in addition to SiO Foodservice amongst others. The aim is to research new valuable solutions for sustainable food.
To celebrate the end of ØKOUKA 2014, everyone was invited for a final feast at Bygdøy. ØKOUKA, the ecological week in Oslo, was filled with workshops, lectures and meetings between city dwellers and farmers. Bygdøy Kongsgård and the community gardens at Hengsengen are one of the finest examples in Oslo where these two worlds meet.
After a whole week of ecological workshops, political debate, farm visits and foods, ØKOUKA had its grand finale at the Bygdø Royal Farm.
Our new series of seasonal getaways all started with a magnificent spring day by the fjords of Oslo. We explored the natural delicacies the sea had to offer - oysters, cockles, mussels and all sorts of wild growths that we could pick in the surrounding hills and forests, turning it into a meal together at the end of the eve.
After a long, hot summer, the woods are changing and preparing for autumn. The change can be felt in the air, which is now filled with the smells of berries, herbs and fungus. It is the time just before harvest, and the time when the cattle come back from summer dairy. It is the warmest month of the year, when the fish seek to the deepest part of the lakes to cool off. The dense forest is moist, hot and mystically dark – intensively yielding its last produce before the inset of autumn.

On Norway’s 200th National Day, May 17th, 2014, we hosted a dinner on behalf of Kinfolk. The theme of the evening was l'ésprit de la mer – the spirit of the sea– so we headed out to an island in the Oslo Fjord, while other sea inspired Kinfolk dinners were going on in many different corners of the world.
