We presented the very first observations of the Sun taken with the Bałdy LOFAR station, PL612, in Poland. The date were collected during the period from October 2016 to July 2017. Two types of radio bursts: type I and III have been detected. These observations show that the LOFAR radio telescope, working in the single station mode, is a good instrument for solar research.
