Farm Histroy
Mr. Cláudio Carneiro Pinto bought the farm from Mr.
Joaquim Pereira de Souza in 1988. It was totally formed by pastures. In
1990, he began planting coffee and the last coffee trees were planted in
1994. In addition to coffee, the farm has fruit orchards and grows
vegetables. Fish farming is another on-going activity of the farm.
Coffee processing system
The coffee beans are washed and pulped on the same
day they are harvested. Subsequently, they are placed on a cemented
terrace where they are spread out in 2 to 3 cm thickness layers and are
turned over many times a day, until the beans reach their ideal humidity
level.
Concern with quality
Quality is continuously sought at the farm, from the
selective harvesting until the end of the processing phase. Coffee
produced in the farm have certifications, and the owner takes part in
associations and cooperatives, and is always technically supervised by
COCARIVE, of Carmo de Minas, State of Minas Gerais.
