Ramme Gaard – farm café and shop

At the entrance to Ramme, in a large and bright greenhouse – combined with a brick building and clock tower, you will find the Ramme café and farm shop.

The cafe

In our green oasis, we offer organic food and drink, inspired by Norwegian and healthy home cooking with a new twist. Here you can enjoy yourself, dream away from a busy everyday life – alone, in the company of others, or with a good book.

The menu offers variations of soup, sandwiches and salads. We get many of the ingredients from the farm, and the menu therefore varies according to the season. In the cake counter, you can choose between carrot cake, scrap cake and other impulsive creations. Cinnamon rolls are also a regular Ramme product.

The farm shop

Since 1986, Ramme has produced tasty, organic vegetables. In the farm shop, you can buy these local treats home and create full-fledged Debio-qualified meals.

We offer, among other things, Ramme's own Edvard Munch juices and jams, colorful eggs from the farm's wide range of chicken breeds, seasonal organic vegetables and meat. Everything harvested and bred right outside the door.

There are also beautiful clothes from "Bente Brat" and practical interior items, as well as a selection of wooden toys and well-being products. You can only find a separate collection of signature products of various kinds here at Ramme, such as an exquisite carrot soap with marigold and other wonderful scents.

Across the yard you also have Ramme Kro and Restaurant.
