Who leads it
The farm has a name, a family name and four generations
Vertente is run by the same family that chose it. Coffee entered the Miari family in 1944, in Três Pontas, and reached the Cerrado because of water. Today four generations answer for the crop, the river source and every lot that leaves here.
