On Farmen, the participants "go back in time" 100 years, meaning that they go to work on a pre-modern farm. They have to do different farm tasks each week.

At the end of the week the participants go through an elimination contest between two participants.

Farmen started with ordinary people as contestants but there has been a second program, Farmen - Kjendis (The Farm - Celebrities). The celebrity version has five seasons already after starting in 2017.
