Plants that have adapted during their evolution to live in particular and unique places are called endemic. They are those plants that today are found only in certain environments and territories and become typical of them.
Mrs. Sousa, together with the women's association AMUPAL, created the botanical garden and the seed bank for the protection and reproduction of endemic and fruit plants.
A visit to the garden will allow you to understand the difficulties of an area with a shortage of water, enjoy a magnificent landscape, discover the resilience of a community.
This workshop is practiced outdoors, accompanied by Sousa. This laboratory will allow tourists to come into direct contact with the endemic nature of the eastern plateau.
