Depoimentos

“Essa aula foi sensacional. Um PUTA conhecimento!!!! Parabéns gente, já li "A vida secreta das arvores", agora vou ler os outros que vocês indicaram.”
Henrique Pompilio
“O curso é excelente, e o trabalho do Valter e da Paula é uma verdadeira inspiração. O PRETATERRA me fez me apaixonar pelas práticas agroflorestais. Seguirei as próximas formações após o Pioneer, com certeza!”
Raquel Gagliano
“Eu que já sou fã do trabalho da PRETATERRA, fiquei encantado com essa aula porque acredito que vocês colocaram o coração nela. Tenho tentado pregar há muito tempo que o uso da lenha é uma forma de energia renovável e que seu uso só pode trazer bons resultados , mas a informação mentirosa, que infelizmente é a que mais tem espaço, faz as pessoas acreditarem no contrário. Parabéns Valter e Paula!”
