Chestnuts, Walnuts and Peanuts Nuts
CASA DO CASTANHEIRO LTDA
Casa do Castanheiro was born out of the understanding that there was a need for extractivists in the Purus region and the possibility of being able to help these producers who had no real guarantee of selling the products collected by their families. They were looking for a partnership with a company responsible for these resources, respecting environmental sustainability, forest conservation, the development of local communities and the valorization of the Amazon's potential.
