The Experience

A Agricultura Orgânica desempenha um papel crucial na preservação da saúde ambiental e humana, salvaguardando as gerações vindouras da contaminação desencadeada pelo uso excessivo de produtos químicos na produção de alimentos. Esta prática consciente não apenas protege o ar, o solo e a água, mas também preserva a integridade dos ecossistemas, promovendo a harmonia entre os seres humanos, os animais e a natureza. Esse é a missão do nosso projeto.

This is a really special place. I learnt so much from Nini and Jorge in my short time here and have been deeply inspired by their project! The location is very peaceful. The meals were the most delicious food I have eaten in Brazil (and maybe anywhere!), all made with fresh ingredients and 'PANCs' from the garden. From interesting political discussions to card games, I loved their company. Unfortunately I was ill in my second week so I was unable to work but they were very caring and understanding.

Meu tempo na comunidade foi incrível! Tive a oportunidade de aprender sobre sustentabilidade na prática, fazer parte de todo o processo de cultivo, as atividades são todas feitas em coletivo e pude aprender tudo com pessoas maravilhosas, Jorge e Nini, Ozéias e os outros voluntários que conheci lá. Tive a oportunidade de crescer dentro da minha própria consciência social, entender os processos e os porquês da necessidade de adotar um cultivo sustentável, a vivência é tranquila, os horários são de acordo com o combinado. Pude ajudar também na cozinha com uma alimentação orgânica e saudável.

Sou muito grata à Nini e ao Jorge por abrirem as portas da the community, me receberem com generosidade e compartilharem um conhecimento tão rico sobre agroecologia, cultivo, construção, consumo de PANCs (um universo que me despertou novos interesses e expandiu minha visão sobre o papel social da terra). Vivi momentos de muita troca e aprendizado, e experimentei alimentos que nunca imaginei possíveis. Sentirei saudades das conversas, da comida deliciosa, da companhia e dos filmes! São pessoas de ideais fortes, com um projeto transformador. Saio daqui com uma nova perspectiva. Muito obrigada!

Adorei a experiência na the community. Nini e Jorge são pessoas muito boas, com muito conhecimento e sabedoria sobre a vida e a natureza. as tarefas são tranquilas. A única coisa que tem que saver é que não há muito o que conheçer em Esmeraldas mesmo, da mais para curtir a the community. Mas é uma experiência agradável para se-relaxar, aprender sobre autosustentabilidade, compartilhar um ambiente acolhedor e boas conversas. Muito grato à Nini e ao Jorge por tudo, vcs são gente muito boa e a the community é um espaco muito especial!! :)

Jorge e Nini, são pessoas do bem e mente abertas, fazem um trabalho árduo e imposição de consciência nessa cidade afastada da capital, e merecem todo o respeito quando se fala de agricultura orgânica familiar. Foi uma experiência bacana onde pude experimentar/aprender parte da agroecologia, compostagem, produção de mudas e compreender como ter uma vida na comunidade. Além de picnics em noites de filme e participar de um evento de agricultura orgânica muito interessante promovida pela cidade. Obrigada pela oportunidade e prazer em conhecê los. Sentirei saudade da Shanty também.
