ZS Janavas

Janavas Farm is located in the picturesque Daugava Nature Park, which was created to protect the unique natural heritage of the ancient valley of the Daugava River. This place is special for its rich diversity of flower species – two-thirds of all Latvian flora can be found here, including protected and rare species such as wild anemones, Daugava mugurenes and wild gladiolas. 

 In 2023, the farm celebrated its 30th anniversary. Janavas is a certified organic farm, and for many years now, the richness of its meadows has been transformed into teas, hydrolates and other natural products created by combining traditional knowledge with modern processing methods. Herbal teas get their special taste and aroma from the diverse flora of the ancient Daugava valley, where delicate meadow flowers, valuable medicinal plants and modest forest plants can be found. Hydrolates are produced by distilling freshly picked plants to preserve the active ingredients and aroma bouquet as much as possible.

 Janavas is happy to share the treasures of its meadows – the former farm building has been adapted to accommodate tourist groups, and guests are offered the opportunity to participate in masterclasses, learn about the health benefits of organic plants, enjoy tea and the feeling of togetherness.  

 A special place on the farm is the Nature Trail, which leads through a flowering meadow and invites visitors to learn about plants in their natural environment. A walk along the trail offers not only the opportunity to enjoy the peaceful atmosphere of the meadow, but also to encounter a unique natural wonder – the BĀBU spring. It once flowed along the banks of the Daugava River, but now it has found a new path underground and flows here, surrounded by meadows. According to test results, the clear and refreshing water of the spring is among the 20 cleanest springs in Latvia. 

 Guests also have the opportunity to stay in a well-equipped glamping tent located on the edge of the forest, surrounded by meadows, with a beautiful view of the Daugava River – a place where you can experience the closeness of nature and the peace of the morning.
