Laupsa Farm

The Laupsa Farm currently belongs  to Olav Hovland, also a decedent of Olav K Valland and Magnhild N. Ovre Vik.

He is refurbishing the farm to it's original state so that it can be used for the traditional handicraft industry (folklore, costumes, etc.). There will be seven women who will be working on these projects.
