Our
trip takes us directly to the south of the state to the town of
Brejinho, where we visit a factory producing farinha, a coarse “flour”
made from maize (type of corn). We’ll continue to Parque Pedra da Boca
to take a 40 minute walk to observe the indigenous paintings, the fauna
and flora from this region.
We’ll continue to the Bom Jardim Farm, a sugar plantation where we’ll
have a beautiful lunch of traditional, regional food. After lunch,
we’ll tour the farm, learning about the way of life for the old
plantation owners called coronéis (colonels), including furniture and
other historic pieces. There may also be optional horseback riding
available.
