Sustainable Farming

Educating for a Sustainable future

At Bananal Farm, we dedicate a specific area to carry out activities with our visitors to demonstrate sustainable alternatives for food production in harmony with the environment, whilst maintaining a connection with the local community.

In these spaces we carry out educational activities that inspire and awaken us to the importance of nature in our lives. Discussing sustainability and conservation whilst surrounded by nature, strengthens the feeling of admiration and respect for life.

Picnic with bird identification tour

Discover the vast birdlife of the Atlantic Forest

Paraty is the region with the greatest diversity of birds in Brazil. To take advantage of this potential for appreciation of Nature, guests of Bananal Farm can go through a program of bird watching with breakfast in picnic format in the Atlantic Forest, in one of the mountains where our Famr is located (just 10 minutes by car from the historic center, including Pousada Literária).

The activity is conducted by the resident ornithologist, who conducts studies for scientific publications on the subject. Studies include capturing, banding, placarding, and tracking the species and returning them to their habitat – all done with guest’s participation and explained in non-technical terms. More than 262 species have already been identified at Bananal Farm – this diversity is part of the positive effect of reforestation that has been done on the farm in the last 2 years.

Guests participate in this activity – absolutely contagious to everyone, especially children – and during the activity, enjoy Pousada Literária chef’s picnic breakfast.
