Descripción
This plantation is a 19th-century Dutch Colonial heritage with lots of history and locally-harvested coffee. It is managed by one of the most influential and respected families in Blitar and has been handed down from generation to generation. In 2015, the property was opened to the public, offering tours through the coffee fields, three museums, and a warehouse-converted cafe that has the charm and relaxed vibes of a Dutch-Indies past life. Rated number one on Trip Advisor as a Blitar “must-see”, this coffee plantation is a perfect place to learn not only about coffee breeding and brewing, but also about history and Javanese culture as well.

The coffee plantation lies on the slopes of Kelud Volcano and is surrounded by small villages, lush green land traced by several nature trails, and many interesting archaeological sites. It is a two hours drive west of Malang, and only 20 minutes to Blitar City.

Intercambio cultural y oportunidades de aprendizaje
You can learn pretty much anything about coffee, from how it is grown, to all the various methods of brewing. We like to better ourselves in all ways possible, so we welcome any suggestions or perspectives you might like to share as well!

Blitar is not a huge city but one that has a very rich, historical story, which we love to share with our volunteers! Dotted with fun and interesting family-run tourist attractions, there are some really cool and different activities to do on your days off. You can find peace and quiet here, but you are just a short ride away from some nightlife as well -- best of all worlds!
Ayuda
We may organize small English lessons for our staff, as well short afternoon lessons for village children from nearby schools.

During downtime, we may ask you to help us with gardening, light weeding on the plantation, and general housekeeping.

If you are interested in really getting your hands dirty, I would recommend coming in June when the harvest takes place.

Ps: Many people here love to meet foreigners and will approach you for small talk and pictures. So, if you are a shy or a private person, then this is not for you.

I don’t even know where to start, but let me just begin by saying that we had such a great and unforgettable time here at the coffee farm.

When we arrived, Filipa and I were really astonished by the nature and the whole surrounding. So many palm trees and right next to the plantation, theres literally a jungle spreading over many hectors. We… read more were actually allowed to drive ATV´s, which are like squads. Or one time we drove with Wima trhough the jungle with a jeep, which was so fun.

Concerning our tasks, we didn’t really have much to do. Id say our main task was to actutally take pictures with the tourists. It was sometimes a bit exhausting because you always had to smile, but not anything I would complain about. Besides that, we sometimes worked in the cafe, serving the tourists or just filling coffee in packages. (By the way, we learned so much about coffee, and we were also able to drink as much coffee as we wanted)

Another task was walking the dogs. The coffee farm has 7 huskies. I must say that that was the only task I didn’t feel that comfortable with, because the dogs are held in a small cage and are thereful quite energetic when u take tthem out for a walk. It was sometimes quite challenging, so u shouldn’t be afraid of dogs. Still, we would invite/ask u to walk the dogs on a daily basis, because otherwise no one really takes care of them. Its not really the fault of the coffee farm but more just a cultural thing, but still I would have wished for a better care of the animals…

Besides that, the people were soooo kind. Whenever we needed help, they were there to help us. We also learned so much about the Indonesian culture. Especially Wima is so cultivated. One evening, he was playing anthems of so many countries which was so impressive.

Okay I guess I must come to an end soon otherwise no ones going to read that text haha. Well, concernings the rooms and the food, u shouldn’t be expecting anything spectacular, its really basic. Theres not a real shower, only a basket, but it was actually quite fun at the end haha. We had rice 3 times a day, which we got used to pretty fast, but I can’t lie that I was happy when we had other food again:D

all in all, I can only recommend this place, if you’re looking for a place with awesome people and want to have fun and learn something about the Indonesian culture.

I spent 2 great weeks in this place and really had fun. I'm very grateful for everything. I met incredibly friendly people there. Mr Wima took us for a tour and gave a lot of interesting and detailed information about the plantation, Blitar city, history and culture. His knowledge and personality impressed me a lot. Arin, his assistant, is amazing… read more

The Gallegos are one of our best volunteers. They were enthusiastic, cooperative, and did good works. They entertain our guest very well, never stop smiling :)

Indonesian and Mexican share many things in common, so we became like family. After all, Ernesto and Metzin brought joy and happiness to our plantation.

It's really easy to say a lot of great things about this place and most easier, about the people who work there. Sadly, the hardest thing was having to say goodbye. When we left (yesterday haha) was so sad for both of us.
We felt like home, this experience was one of those things that you really not plan but somehow it turned out to be amazing.… read more

Cassi, Paula, and Maria were very helpful to our plantation. And you know .. Brazilian, they really brought happiness to this place. They laughed, danced, and sang to make this plantation "lively". These Brazilian girls are every Workaway's host needed :)

The place is amazing and the people even more! We learned a lot about Java culture and the history of Indonesia, specially the city Blitar. Our hosts were very thoughtful, the food was great and the accommodations very good.

Felix and Erik helped us to create promo and marketing concepts which is very useful for us now. And they entertained the guests so well. It was fun to play football with Felix, well he is very talented. However, Erik didn't play football because of his injury. Yes, it was unfortunate that, unlike the other volunteers, they didn't learn much about… read more

Hey its Erik & Felix,
we stayed two weeks in this plantation and learned a lot about Blitar and it's history. The people were very friendly and took care of us.
It was off season when we stayed there so there was not much to do, not even on the weekends, which are supposed to be the busiest. So we played cards and drank coffee very often.… read more

We're really sorry for what happened to Abdul when he was suddenly taken by the immigration officers and held there almost one day, but we did our best to help him out. Well, that was the first time such thing happened to volunteer, and hopefully the last. Abdul was a good cook, and he cooked us Moroccan cuisine, which was very delicious. He even… read more

We discussed lot of things with Adil, from cultures, religions, politics, football, women, and ... well the last one I can't tell you because it's so "dumb" (just let the secret stay with both of us). These facts tell you that Adil is knowledgeable man. And yes he likes to learn new things. He can be your best friend. His work was really good, and… read more

He is a nice guy who didn't talk to much, but work a lot. He never complain about anything, but was very cooperative. Do not think that being an Italian means that he likes football. But if you want to talk about motor racing he would be enthusiastic. And he is a good cook also! Don't miss his Italian cuisine, you should try it ;)

I spent only a couple of days full of happines. Work at the plantation is funny and interact with the customers became a kind of game. The people are very nice and i felt at home. The city of Blitar is rich of history. First of all, the history of the life of Sukarno, the first Indonesian President. Some fun is waitnig you.

I can see from my heart Lukasz is a good man. He was really eager to learn about our culture, and quite serious about learning Bahasa Indonesia. He always wrote everything he learned on his book. It was funny to see he's carrying his diary everywhere. He has sense a humor and really enjoyed any meals he had. The most important thing is, he was a… read more

I stayed here for three weeks and I was lucky enough to be the first volunteer they've got. And by saying that I really mean – lucky!
Gee, I don't know where to start, everything was just amazing!
You'll get to stay in a very climatic place with a lot of history. A great part of that history is still waiting to be discovered and that by itself… read more
