Andis and Lelde made me feel very welcome at their the farm, very lovely people! I had a comfy place to sleep and cook my food and peaceful environment to spend my free time. the farm is surrounded by beautiful nature and forest, you can also easily make it to the river or discover the city of Jelgava. There was a bike at my disposal to go to the town and back if i needed. The job is easy and Andis explains everything perfectly well. Everyday we did something different and i'm sure they will find fun tasks for you to do once you're there. I would truly recommend this experience!

What a beautiful place to be, I really enjoyed my stay here. Was so nice to spend time surrounded by nature with my hands in the earth. A refreshment for the soul. The accommodation was really comfortable and Andis and Lelde are such lovely people who made me feel right at home from the start. The work is fun and varied, with flexible hours which pass very quickly so you still have time for yourself each day. There's a gym and a pond to swim in, and you can borrow a bike to get to town. Plus the hourly train to Riga is only 2.50€. A wonderful experience, would highly recommend.

One of the best service/travel experiences of my life. Andis and Lelde and lovely people who are friendly, funny, and are genuinely interested in showing you Latvian culture while learning about your own. Tasks involved gardening, weeding, leveling, cleaning, and building. I have never enjoyed digging a hole as much as I have here - the work is truly gratifying. The property is like a little piece of country only 10 mins from the city center (by car). You can use the bikes to go to and from the city or Bolt scooters. There are plenty of trails in the forest behind the property. Also sauna!

This trip was my first Worldpackers experience and I'm not disappointed. I'm a French boy and I staid for a week and I did some simple tasks like moving wood for example. So the accommodation with Andis and Lelde was very agreable. In addition they gave me advice to visit somewhere. Really nice experience

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay with Lelde and Andis! They are very happy, accommodative and welcoming people. I felt from the first day that I was a part of the farm community, and every day was enjoyable. Their property is lovely and will be amazing once they finish all of their tasks! It is easy to access and close enough to everything you need. I enjoyed helping them with creative projects and the experience to go kayaking together in the local river. I'd love to come back again some time in the future!

My experience was amazing, I spent 2 weeks there and I had a good time. Basically working to make the place nicer, the host is super friendly and he has an young spirit and a lot of stories to share and inspire people. Of course I have to say about the Gym sessions and good beers to balance heheh I had a private room, the place is really cozy and easy to go to Riga. If you wanna connect with local culture and nature, for sure it's a good place to go. Andis has in mind what is the “volunteering life” and he gave me the opportunity to work in my time and also share my ideias. Thanks a lot

I had a great experience volunteering at the farm. Andis is a great host. Everything promised was delivered. He is super chilled, relaxed and gabr me autonomy to schedule my hours. I worked outdoors primarily, helping improve a gazebo near the pond, by laying and leveling the slabs and bricks. I also helped with some eaning at the guest house. the farm is a 35 min walk to town/ train station. Grocery store is 20 mins away. Train to Riga from Jelgava is 45 mins. I went to Riga multiple times to visit museums. I recommend for thiose who enjoy outdoor tasks and are keen on culture.
