History of the farmSitio da Matinha
was acquired in 1947 by Mr. Edio Anacleto Miranda, a coffee grower with
more than 50 years of experience also responsible for the administration
of the farm. On Sitio da Matinha there are four springs and a river with a beautiful
waterfall, which traverses the entire property. The terrain is rugged,
with elevations that vary from 900 to 1,400 meters, and has a reforested
area of 20 hectares. The entire watercourse is protected by riparian
forests.Mr. Edio Anacleto Miranda has a great dream of
transforming the site into an inn where he would benefit from the coffee
that already has some national awards and also from the beauty of the
site which has several springs and beautiful waterfalls offering rural
tourism.Coffee processing systemThe harvest
is done manually, aiming at the creation of jobs. After the harvest the
coffee is taken to the pulper. The water used in this phase is
completely recycled, with the use of a settling tank. Next, the beans
are taken to dry on concrete or suspended patios, where they are
separated according to quality. After the quality selection, the lots
are kept separated in warehouses.
