Enghaugen is an integral part of Ringstad Gård Lille. In the 1930s, Harald and Alise Ringstad built their own home on the farm and named the place Enghaugen. With its location on a hill and surrounded by a meadow, the choice of name was natural. Much has changed since then. From being an award-winning ornamental garden, Enghaugen has now evolved into a natural plot, without awards as a reward. Today, the garden serves as a play area for the dogs, and the beautiful flower beds have been transformed into a natural plot that makes room for wild flowers that thrive at their own pace. The traditional sheep that once grazed on the meadow have now been replaced by alpacas. Ringstad Gård Lille has roots dating back to around 1740, and throughout history the farm has been the basis of life for those who have lived here. While traditional farming is often reserved for larger farms or joint ventures in today's agriculture, here at Enghaugen, Ringstad Gård Lille, we want to give the farm a "new life". The idea of alpaca farming was sown in 2006, and since then we have gradually realized this vision. The original main house, built in 1740 and extended in 1840, has been beautifully restored and is today in good condition. The barn, which was once reduced to ruins, has now been rebuilt. The brewery has undergone restoration, and the hen house now stands in all its glory. The old forge has been converted into an office, and we are proud to have our own library as an extra gem on the farm.
