Maud Østerø
Craft Food Entrepreneur
Maud moved to Trøllanes 38 years ago. Together with her husband, she has raised sheep and cattle. The couple runs the only kiosk on the island, and in recent years, they've ventured into producing homemade cheese, sausages, jams, and smoked meats — products that have been warmly embraced by both locals and visitors alike.
Maud has an exceptional ability to spot new and innovative opportunities within Faroese cuisine and the growing tourism industry. Society is always changing, and being able to adapt is a significant advantage. What started as a small venture has now grown into a well-respected business, where they sell hundreds of cheeses and other Faroese products.
She believes that creating something people truly enjoy gives far more than just financial rewards.
Maud feels incredibly at home in Trøllanes, and she especially treasures the experience her children have had growing up there — in a community where everyone looks out for each other.
