The project supported the development of the Food Cluster in the State of Vatnaj\u00f6kull. The main goals were to build efficient grassroots activities within the cluster, work on the development of a common image, work on promotional material for Food in the State of Vatnaj\u00f6kull and last but not least work on defined product development projects to strengthen the selection of local gourmet food in the area. The project was successful in all respects. Participants in the food cluster work closely together in the continuation of the project. A common and clear image of products from the State of Vatnaj\u00f6kull has been built up. Among other things, a cookbook and experience book was published where we discuss products, producers and their environment in the State of Vatnaj\u00f6kull. The book has now sold about 2000 copies. The project led the group to start running a joint home market store in Pakkh\u00fasi\u00f0 in H\u00f6fn in the summer of 2009, which turned into a weekly market during the winter of 2009-2010. A number of products are now ready for sale following the product development process.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
