British-American writer Henry James once wrote “It takes an endless amount of history to make even a little tradition”. We have many food traditions in Norway that can prove this to be true. The small team of nerdy dairy enthusiast at Rørosmeieriet are working hard to preserve and take care of one of these treasures as they balance the fine line between tradition and innovation. From ancient knowledge, maybe a bit of luck and skillful handcraft, a strange milky brew from the past is giving us vital health and connection to our roots.
Why is community important and why do humans seek it? What are we actually searching for in the meeting and melting with others and how does it relate to my personal evolution? If the evolution of this planet also is mirrored in the ways we relate, what lessons are waiting to be learned in terms of the way we build our communities? These questions have been echoing in my being this fall.
