Our Ara Organic comes from Fazenda Dutra which is a family run farm in São João do Manhuaçu, owned and operated by the two brothers Ednilson and Walter. Owned and operated by brothers Ednilson and Walter, the farm has been an integral part of their lives since birth. Their father, José, planted the seeds of this legacy in the 1950s, starting with just a single hectare. With dedication and hard work, he reinvested the farm’s earnings to gradually expand his landholding, growing it to an impressive 1,100 hectares. When José passed away in September 1999, he entrusted the farm to his sons, who now carry forward his vision with deep respect and commitment.
