The idea of participatory agriculture is to promote solidarity economy and the connection between consumers and rural areas. Currently, we operate through events that exchange labor for agricultural products. In a series of events, we offer training in rural areas and practice feeding ourselves with what the earth provides, as a new form of food culture: the culture of experience, of collective action with the desire to plant.

Through participatory processes, we promote knowledge and skills for sustainable food production, specifically focusing on native edible wild plants. It is about valuing agricultural work, doing it oneself, and actively engaging. We are creating structures to work with nature and, thus, protect the environment. Indigenous ancestral techniques for cultivation and processing are being relearned and passed on.

Under the term Participatory Agriculture, there are so-called vivências on various topics. We feed ourselves with native plants as a new form of practiced food culture: the culture of experience, of collective doing. In this way, we promote exchange between sustainably producing farmers and people from the community, both urban and rural.

We are part of a neighborhood network that holds weekly collaborative workdays (mutirões). Farmers help each other accomplish tasks that would be difficult to do alone, such as implementing new gardens or irrigation systems. From this, collective projects and initiatives arise.
