São Joaquim Apple Tour

Hotel pickup in São Joaquim will be at your chosen time to start the apple tour. This crop represents more than 80% of the city's economy.

The first stop is the Company of Agricultural Research and Rural Extension of Santa Catarina (EPAGRI), where we will explore how the region focuses on preservation, conservation, recovery, and sustainable use of natural resources in agriculture.

Next, we will visit the apple processing area to learn about the various stages the fruit undergoes, from harvesting to distribution, including washing and selection. We will also discover the notable apple varieties from São Joaquim, such as Gala and Fugi.

Our next stop is an apple orchard where, if you wish, you can pick apples directly from the tree and taste them.
