Jacobina — Heart of the Northern Chapada Diamantina

Located in the heart of the Northern Chapada Diamantina, the city of Jacobina, in Bahia, is one of the most significant regional centers of the Bahian semi-arid region. Situated about 330 km from Salvador, it combines historical tradition, natural diversity, and a privileged climate—directly shaped by its mountainous geography.

Known as the “City of Gold”, Jacobina emerged during the colonial period, in the mining cycle, and has since established itself as a center of work and prosperity in the interior of Bahia. Over time, its economy diversified, incorporating agriculture, livestock, and ecotourism as pillars of sustainable development.

It is within this territory that the Serra do Tombador rises, one of the region’s most striking geological formations and an integral part of the Chapada Diamantina. Its elevations reach approximately 950 meters above sea level, creating unique microclimates with mild temperatures, good humidity levels, and balanced sunlight. This combination provides ideal conditions for growing subtropical and temperate-climate fruits, such as berries and avocados—the foundation of Piantare’s production.

Piantare is located precisely in this privileged area of Serra do Tombador, where the terrain, soil, and climate come together to deliver the perfect balance between origin, nutrition, and flavor. This strategic location not only enhances the quality of production but also connects Jacobina to the logistical routes of the São Francisco Valley, facilitating access to national and international markets.

Surrounded by fertile valleys, rivers, and waterfalls, Jacobina is also a destination of exuberant natural beauty and welcoming people. Its bucolic landscape and productive potential make it an example of the integration between tradition and innovation—a place where Piantare finds the ideal environment to grow, produce, and inspire a new model of sustainable agriculture.
