Rancho dos Querubins:
Where Nature Cultivates Life

Rancho dos Querubins is a refuge where nature and care go hand in hand. Located amidst a preserved area of regenerated native forest, the ranch cultivates a vibrant agroforestry system, rich in biodiversity and in harmony with the environment.

Here, each crop respects the earth's rhythm and values the diversity of species, resulting in authentic products full of flavor and history. More than just producing food, Rancho dos Querubins cultivates balance, regeneration, and connection with nature.

Each fruit, each harvest, carries the essence of work done with dedication, respect, and purpose.

Christiane Quinteiro, a zoo-technician, naturopath, and yoga teacher, learned from her paternal grandmother, since childhood, to respect, observe, and interact with nature.
Having a nature reserve has always been her dream, and believing that anything is possible, she made it a reality with the support of her husband and children.
They transformed Rancho dos Querubins, which in 2000, the year they acquired the property, was almost completely degraded. Today, the 104.5-hectare property has 74 hectares of naturally regenerated forest, 4 hectares of agroforestry, with more than 35 native species. Cameras have recorded the movement of animals, such as anteaters, maned wolves, pumas, armadillos, foxes, wildcats, and many others...

Christiane believes that by favoring biodiversity and giving ecosystems the necessary time to complete their cycles and regenerate, we promote sustainable territorial development, combining conservation, education, productivity, and responsible tourism.
In their opinion, food security combined with a connection to Nature is the greatest and best contribution we can offer to our Mother Earth and her passengers.
