In the woodworking workshop under the guidance of Juris Bleiders, everyone is invited to get acquainted with the power of wood and its application through Latvian life wisdom. On the second floor, there is a dendrology therapeutic (nature) hall. In the dendrology therapeutic hall, you can get acquainted with ten types of trees, where each of them is special. Druid horoscope, a tree as a representation of human life.

The host also prepared special “luck” buttons from wood, which should be sewn under your clothing, to bring you luck any day and time.

Even more –  guests can try fortune-telling with runes, sit on a special bench for inspiration, or get warmth from a nice fireplace.

Upon prior request, the owner of the workshop offers to taste a special drink called “Meža šalkas” (shmakovka/moonshine). Entrance fee: adults-2.50 Eur, for schoolchildren the price is agreeable.
