Norway House is partnering with the Giants of the Earth Heritage Center in Spring Grove to bring a taste of Minnesota’s first Norwegian settlement in Minneapolis! A charming and vibrant town in Southeastern Minnesota, Spring Grove is a perfect focus as we work to highlight the many vibrant historically Norwegian communities around the United States. Onsite security provided.

Peruse displays from Giants of the Earth, comic strip characters Han Ola og Han Per, and other Spring Grove organizations and destinations, and see some of the stories from the Giants Oral Histories Project.

Crispy, delicate krumkake cookies are usually associated with Christmas. However, you can enjoy krumkake all year long! By switching up the flavors, we can make krumkake for any occasion. In this spring-themed class, we'll make strawberry cardamom krumkake and lemon lavender krumkake. We'll cover the basics in this hands-on class, but most of our time will be spent making cookies, so all skill levels are welcome! Bring an apron and a container so you can take home cookies.

Heidi Eger is perhaps best known as our “Lefse Guru” and also runs a lamb farm near Spring Grove which will provide the meat for the fårikål (lamb in cabbage) at our Spring Dinner: An Evening to Celebrate Spring Grove.
