Holmefjord is a small typical western Norwegian village. In the 1960 there were 2 general shops, a diary as well as a local bakery. Due to modern communications and lifestyle, in 2006 there is only one general shop left. There are a few factories based on wood as raw mateials, producing among other things woden beams. The traditional handicraft of making barrels out of pine is now almost extinct. These barrels were used for storage of herring as well as exported to Canada and Iceland.
The village is keeping an almost 100 years tradition of setting up a play every 17th of May. Most villagers have through the years participated in the play. On the 17th of may the villagers work together and make a lot of a popular local porrige called - raudravle - which is sold for the benefit of the community house - Bygdaheimen-.
