    Description

    Hi! My name is João. I Live in a farm for a few years now and basicaly i am working on regenerating the land through ecological process. We work with natural construction methods - we raise an indigenous pig race which I process into charcuterie products- we also produce dairy products with our very nice milk - we plant mandioca to produce puba, a wonderful indigenous fermented food- we have a few reflorestarion areas - my wife works with chinese medicine and she also produces natural medicine with the native fauna.

    The farm has a thousand beautiful spots such as rivers to bath, a waterfall, high places with nice landscapes. We also have horses, chickens and ducks!

    Also the whole of serrinha do alambari is really really beautiful...

    This is a very small place... we have 4 or 5 places to drink a beer eat something and chat. In summer and spring people are in the water! There's no fancy place or anyrhing like that. Closest place to do this kind of thing is Penedo (10min).

    Me and my wife we looooove to cook and specially using our products. We have a good circle of friends around. It's a small place but theres intresting people!
