A Journey Through Minas Gerai
In the sun-kissed hills of Brazil’s Minas Gerais region, a coffee legacy thrives. Nestled amidst rolling landscapes, Fazenda Dutra stands as a testament to dedication, sustainability, and the art of cultivating exceptional coffee.
The Dutra Family: Guardians of Tradition
For over half a century, the Dutra Family has tended to their land—a sprawling estate spanning nearly 2,500 acres. Their journey began with a vision: to create a haven where coffee flourishes, and community thrives. Today, their legacy is etched into every coffee cherry plucked by weathered hands.
From Earth to Cup: The Harvest Ritual
Picture this: 3 million coffee trees, their leaves rustling in the breeze, their roots anchored deep in fertile soil. Each season, over 600 seasonal workers converge on Fazenda Dutra, their fingers deftly selecting ripe cherries. It’s a symphony of labor, a dance between earth and sun. And within those crimson fruits lies the promise of something extraordinary.
Sustainability, One Sip at a Time
Fazenda Dutra isn’t just about coffee; it’s a sanctuary for sustainability. Solar panels adorn rooftops, powering depulpers that hum with purpose. Soon, mechanical dryers will join the clean energy revolution. But it doesn’t end there. The estate’s 750 acres of native forest—lush and untamed—guard water sources and shield the coffee trees from nature’s whims.
Beyond Beans: A Promise to People
The Dutra family knows that their legacy extends beyond the cup. They’ve invested in education, building a school within the estate’s embrace. They’ve woven a safety net of healthcare for employees and their families. It’s a commitment etched in every bean, every sip—a promise to nurture not just coffee but lives.
