Patrícia's journey in coffee production began at the roots of her family, in the lands where she was born and raised. From a young age, she was involved in farm activities, working alongside her father in the coffee processing area, and his influence was fundamental in shaping her into a passionate coffee farmer.

After a period away to focus on her studies, she returned to São Gonçalo and is now the fourth generation actively involved in coffee production. Coffee is not just a crop to her; it's a legacy deeply rooted in her heart and in the land.

Like her, many women are at the forefront of this challenging work, making significant contributions at every stage, from cultivation to marketing. They are responsible for ensuring not only the quality of the beans but also for keeping alive the history and values that permeate this vital activity for families and communities.

From the earthen patio to the concrete one, from extreme temperatures to selective harvesting techniques, they continually seek innovations to enhance the quality of the beans. She dreams of turning the farm into a sustainable and tourist-friendly model, opening its gates to lovers of specialty coffee. With every cup, she shares not just a flavor but her story.
