Farmstay in Brazil - Manuelzinho explains how to whet tools

In our farm, three hours driving from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, we have a project of organic tomatoes in a greenhouse and also Vetiver plants. Vetiver is an amazing plant from India that can be applied in many different things such as slope stabilization against mudslide, erosion and infrastructure protectio, water purification, essence oil and parfums production, handcraft, etc . Both projects, Organic Tomatoes and Vetiver are social-oriented and scientifical in our farm. That means, we try to improve the techniques, get knowledge and help other people. Whenever we get positive results we try to spread them to the communities around that practice traditional agriculture and suffer a lot with this. To help on those projects we accept friendly people from all over the world that can come and stay in the farm for free. We provide simple and basic food and lodge. People can also have their own vegetable garden. In exchange people might help working. The nature here is amazing. We have a lot of land, forests, mineral water sources, a big lake, ducks, chickens, cows, gooses and many birds and monkeys around. Local people living here are great. They are very wise and will teach you many things about local life, portuguese language and Nature. You can also explore the surround region where you are going to find many waterfalls, old-farm constructions and archeological sites. Take a look in the videos and enjoy the people talking about their experience here. Get inspired and come to visit us!!
