José Edivaldo Gonçalves & family conduct the production of quality coffees at Barra Estate since the 1966. José Edivaldo, then with 15 years old, together with his brothers started to manage the small coffee production after their father José Fernandes Pereira passed away that year. 

​

Over the years, working together, the brothers gradually increased their farming knowledge and expanded their coffee production up to 1995, when they decided that it would be best for each to manage their own production independently.

José Edivaldo was left with 55 hectares. Since then, he has been running the farm with the gradual help of his sons, each year with more intensity. They have been contributing, in addition to the workforce, more knowledge in quality and productivity to the estate.

Nowadays, Mr. Edivaldo and his sons Tiago, Felipe and André manage the estate with great competence, being responsible for 200 hectare of high quality coffee production and 75 hectares of preserved Atlantic Rainforest.
