🌾 The Story of Quilombo Mumbuca & Capim Dourado
The blog explores the rich heritage of Quilombo Mumbuca, a community located in Jalapão, Tocantins, Brazil. Originally founded by descendants of enslaved Africans, this quilombo has preserved centuries-old traditions through oral storytelling, crafts, and community values.
A highlight of their legacy is the use of Capim Dourado (Golden Grass) — a naturally golden plant used by the community to create stunning handmade accessories and home goods. The tradition began with “Dona Miúda,” a local matriarch who passed the weaving technique to future generations. These crafts are not just products; they represent resilience, identity, and cultural preservation.
The blog emphasizes the importance of supporting indigenous and quilombola artisans who face increasing threats from modern development. By purchasing from Mumbuca, consumers help protect this endangered cultural practice and empower local women artisans.
