ERASMUS+ KA2 PROJECT2015-2017
Daugavpils Saskaņas School/Latvia
Urban farming as such is not typical of Latvia as we have a lot of empty fields and farmland.
Latvians like to spend their free time in the countryside.
O So, what we do – we rent or buy a piece of land (or usually
we inherited it) for gardening and growing food plants. And
families grow vegetables, fruits (apples), berries, or do
beekeeping or even raise chickens.
O This tradition is passed from generation to generation. It can
be both commercial gardening or just a hobby.

Also we pickle cucumbers, tomatoes and other vegetables to eat them in winter.
