In 2014, we – Hilaine, Bart, Roger, Nico and Lucas Bijen – decided to head to Brazil to set up Eco Caminhos, a sustainable farm. We are idealists with extensive experience in social projects, engineering, management, entrepreneurship, and educating Brazilian youth. We know what it takes to set up a project in Brazil, where we have lived and worked for over 10 years. We enjoy getting our hands dirty, connecting with people, and exchanging knowledge.
We believe that the challenges we face while realising our dreams allow us to grow as human beings. We cooperate with the local community and invite people with similar dreams to join us. In the past three years we have received volunteers from Brazil and across the globe. Slowly but steadily our team is growing with people who intend to stay here with us and become an integral part of the Eco Caminhos team.

The idea is that farm will be self-sustain in food and in energy in a close future and will offer vocational courses for unprivileged teenagers.
We generate income through Eco-tourism and at the same time create awareness under brazilians and tourists about the Permaculture miracles.
