    Description

    This is a permaculture experiment located in Serra da Aratanha. Ideal for those looking to immerse themselves in a calm place in tune with the rhythm of nature. Its biodiversity provides daily discoveries of animals and plants.

    Permaculture is the main tool for planning and carrying out activities integrating agroforestry, vegetable gardens, ornamental and medicinal gardens, chicken coops, meliponaries, roof gardens, bioconstructions and people.

    We hope to welcome people willing to exchange knowledge, experiences and affections and interact deeply with nature and its rhythm.
