Introduction
A family property located in the Bairro dos Pereiras, in the city of Socorro, State of São Paulo (Brazil), Sítio Barrel has a very productive area, where a variety of fruits and vegetables are grown. The gardens are spread over 3 hectares of the property with various crops such as strawberry, carrot, beans, potato, beet, sweet corn, persimmon, onion and garlic.
Highlight
In wide, well-divided beds, each crop has its own space, which makes the organization of these productive spaces clear while the colors of the vegetable varieties contrast, creating a great visual impression.
Differentiator
The strawberries produced, besides being washed and sanitized, are placed in small plastic boxes ideal for marketing the fruit. Afterwards, these boxes are placed in plastic crates to make transport easier, generating a high added economic value, precisely for products that require delicate handling.
Information
All production at Sítio Barrel is organic, with the aim of producing healthy food for consumption and free of chemical substances - generally used in pest control.
