OUR HISTORY
4th generation of the family business
Fazenda São Miguel, currently owned by Mr. Otávio Rennó de Carvalho Dias and his sister Érika Rennó de Carvalho Dias, has a wide range of productive activities involving beef cattle, pig farming, poultry farming, fish farming, and forestry, with coffee cultivation being the main activity. Despite limited financial resources, the coffee has yielded good results with high-quality coffee (pulped natural) and efficient management aimed at obtaining a good beverage and productivity that meets the best coffee standards.
ABOUT THE SÃO MIGUEL FARM
At the dawn of a new era for Fazenda São Miguel, Otávio and Érika, the fourth generation of the farm, took on a legacy marked by pain: the tragic loss of their parents in 2001, when they were still very young. Even facing financial instability and the agonizing wait for the release of the estate, they rose with courage, supported by family, friends, and financial institutions that, as soon as possible, provided the necessary resources. When the division of assets threatened to fragment the estate—and one of the sisters chose to sell her share—they made a bold decision: they acquired the entire share. This act, although it generated debt, was a conscious and essential sacrifice to preserve the integrity of the farm. Today, with tireless and honest work, they build upon this legacy, efficiently reconstructing the estate, diversifying production, and honoring the inherited values with bravery and determination.
Modern agriculture. Commitment and soil regeneration.
At Fazenda São Miguel, we have been using biological inputs for the past four years to regenerate degraded soils, producing our own raw materials internally. These bio-inputs have stimulated microbial activity, improved soil structure, promoted nutrient cycling, and increased its water retention capacity, consolidating a more fertile and resilient environment. As a result of this sustainable management, the quality of the coffee beverage has increased noticeably, following trends observed in the sector, which indicate gains in beverage quality with the continuous use of these inputs.
