The Campo Lindo Project (Projeto Campo Lindo), established in 2021 during the peak of the Covid-19 pandemic by the Axworthy family and their collaborator Sarah, arose in 2014 as they moved to the US, intending to return to Brasilia to plant coffee. The more they learned about the impact of conventional agriculture on the health of people and the world we live in, the more their interest and desired shifted. Instead of planting in a manner that always requires more external inputs, including fertilizers and pesticides to prop up an ever more vulnerable system, they became captivated by several movements in regenerative agriculture. They envisioned agriculture as an opportunity for humans to play an active role in building up soils and ecosystems, making them increasingly resilient and fertile.
Acquiring an 80-hectare farm approximately 50 kilometers outside Brasilia, and dedicated a portion of the land, which had been converted by the previous owners, to pasture using invasive vegetation, to cultivating organic fruits and vegetables. A large portion of the land they started regenerating using syntropic agriculture, a method pioneered by Swiss innovator Ernst Götsch.
Recognizing the curiosity surrounding their journey from teaching at an International School in Brasilia to venturing into organic farming, Jessica and her team launched the Farm Day Brunch initiative.
Each final Saturday of the month, starting at 9:30, the farm hosts a brunch featuring a nutritious array of quiches, cakes, breads with fruit spreads, freshly picked fruits, juices, and aromatic coffee (both Jonathan and Sarah are experienced baristas), sourced primarily from the farm and neighboring organic producers. Throughout the brunch, Jessica and her team share anecdotes of their transition to organic farming, recounting the challenges and triumphs encountered along the way.
Following the meal, guests embark on a guided tour of the farm, learning about its agricultural practices, environmental challenges unique to the Cerrado. Children are invited to interact with the farm's goats and cows, adding a playful dimension to the experience.
The excursion concludes around noon, but for those seeking further adventure, an extensive hike through the breathtaking Cerrado landscape awaits. Jonathan will happily identify native plant species for you, and, if the season is right and your courage allows, share with you some of the rarer and lesser known Cerrado fruits! Hikes providing unique insights into the importance of enjoying and encouraging biodiversity.
Brunch and activities are priced at R$65 per adult, R$32 for children aged 4 to 12, with complimentary admission for children under 4. Farm Day activities are also free for families who maintain a Farm Club subscription (how to become a member, please click here). RSVP is required by Thursday evening.
In essence, the Farm Day Brunch offers a delightful fusion of gastronomic delights and firsthand insights into the world of organic farming, where nature's vitality is rekindled with each harvest.

Highly recommended
Cristina has a natural ability to engage with children of all ages. With her previous profession employment as a teacher, and having two adult children of her own, she is well placed to take responsibility for any children in her care. Speaking fluent Portuguese and English, your children will be in safe hands and also receive the benefits of improving their language abilities.

I came here to write a post about Billy and I see there already is one! So I'll just add my experience. When I was brand-new to Brasilia I did a group tour of Brasilia. This is a really great tour - you'll learn not only the layout of the city and the history of why it's been done that way, but also get to see all the big monuments and best architecture. I would really recommend this tour if you have family or friends visiting. You'll learn so much about the city, and your guests will feel like they actually know the city.

Moving is often a stressful and daunting task, but AAA Moving & Relocations LLC made it a breeze!
The team was fantastic - they were professional, efficient, friendly and patient! They took great care in packing and securing all of my belongings, and even went above and beyond to collect a few items that I had forgotten.
Paulo Woolny, the owner of the company, was also incredibly helpful throughout the process. He provided transparent and accurate quotes upfront, so there were no surprises when it came to the cost of my move. He also kept me informed every step of the way, which really put my mind at ease. He is always willing to please you if he can and if something is under his control.
When my removal reached Italy, their Italian counterparts were just as efficient and careful. All my belongings arrived in time and in perfect condition, which was great.
Overall, I cannot recommend AAA Moving & Relocations LLC highly enough. They truly are experts in their field, and they made what could have been a very stressful experience into a pleasant and easy one. If you're looking for a moving company that cares about your belongings and your peace of mind, look no further than AAA Moving & Relocations LLC. You shall not be disappointed!

If you want a day trip outside the city, Billy does really great tours to Cristalina, Pirenopolis, etc. I went on a Cristalina small group tour with him and it was really fun. My son is still talking about it two years later.

The place is very charming and peaceful. They offer a range of delicious typical food and the owner is super friendly.
