Food
At Elverum Folkehøgskole, we are keen to provide you with varied and good food - whether you are vegan, vegetarian, on a diet or not.
Four meals a day
All meals are included in the price, and four meals are served every day during the week. Breakfast, lunch, dinner and supper. There is no extra charge for vegetarian/vegan or other diets.
Weekend food
At weekends, breakfast is later and you can sleep longer. On Saturday, a late breakfast, dinner and Saturday dinner are served. On Sunday, a proper Sunday breakfast, Sunday dinner and evening meal are served.
Breakfast and evening meal
Breakfast and evening meals are served with home-baked bread, crackers, cereals, oatmeal and a selection of good spreads, cottage cheese and yoghurt.
In addition, you get coffee, tea and milk. There is a separate buffet for gluten-free options.
There is a microwave and toaster in the dining room.
Lunch
Leftovers are usually served for lunch to avoid food waste, hot soup,
salad bar or other tasty snacks, fresh rolls or bread.
Lines that are going on a trip bring a packed lunch with them during breakfast.
The dinners vary between everything from Norwegian home cooking to Indian, tacos and pizza.
Allergy
The kitchen has good experience in preparing food for various allergies. We have offers for vegetarian, vegan, gluten-free, lactose-free and other allergens.
Chef Silje makes arrangements with you if you need arrangements.
On excursions and study trips, there is a line teacher who organizes food, and we try as far as possible to accommodate all needs and have an open dialogue so everyone is full.
