The artisan's production is located in the Vecpiebalga manor complex, which is surrounded by a rich landscape, ancient architecture and beautiful village-style corners. There are other artisans in the area.

Visitors can make their own natural wax candles enriched with plants and essential oils. Workshops are available in the candle workshop and at the customer's place for corporate and individual events, as well as for weddings. Registration is required for workshops. Gardenia Eco is a family business operating on a heritage rural organic farm where they harvest and dry the materials for the candles. Read more about the special candle master Aiva Balodi in the "Human Stories" section.

Gardenia Eco produces scented eco candles only from natural materials. The candles consist of eco soy and rapeseed wax, essential oils and natural products. Each candle is handmade. The products can be purchased in the artisan's store and can also be ordered as gifts. You can also fill your own dishes to make a unique candle.

The place is suitable for visitors of different ages and is also attractive to younger generations.

Although space is available for large groups, the workshops are not recommended for large numbers of people.

The workshop is arranged in the servants' house of the Vecpiebalga manor. Read more about the manor here, on the "Vidzemēs" website.
