"Wheat on the Ringnes farm"
©2016 photo Elroy
Christenson
The Ringnes farm is one of the
largest and most important in Stange parish of
Hedmark. Erik Ringnes, the present owner,
represents the local farmers about the rules and
regulations in the European Union and Norwegian
government. Under the tree shown here is a
stone that marks the grave of Gunhild, the half
sister of Saint Olaf, who came here to attend her
wedding.
I have a number of families who owned or lived on
this farm from as far back as 1508.
