Fields of weed.

in #nature • 7 years ago

One summer day in the north.

No farmers left where I live. All the old grasslands grow dense with weeds and forest. The same happens in large parts of Norway. Every year, hundreds of farms are closed down due to poor profitability.

    Beautiful pictures Jan!
    Your place is paradise!
    I've seen fields of pink in BE but that's on the way to France and just drivin passed through it. Up close is very different!
    They call them weed but really they're the earth's ornaments!

    Hello..!!
    :D
    @karja
    Beautiful...Beautiful photos...!!!
    It has to be so heartbreaking for the farmers to leave. The farmers in my area struggle trying to keep their farms going. Hard work with very little to no profit.
