In the village of Pontal, Apiaká do Pontal and Isolados Indigenous Land, Vanda Munduruku keeps the tradition of ancestral planting alive. Her bean field is not just food, but a symbol of connection, culture and resistance. The seeds they grow today were received from other relatives, strengthening the essential practice of exchanging seeds, guaranteeing diversity, food security and the preservation of indigenous knowledge.
Supporting traditional crops means valuing the history, identity and sovereignty of indigenous peoples. Each plant is a link that unites generations and keeps the roots of the land alive. 🌿✨
