🏢 About the local organisation

JEssEsen Landsby is a community (village) for and with adults with disabilities. JEssEsen is a part of the Camphill movement. There are 5 similar villages in Norway. These communities are based on the teachings of anthroposophy. Situated on a biodynamic farm, JEssEsen has 5 family houses and several workshops. There are approximately 50 people living in the community. Three to five villagers plus three to four co-workers live in each house.
