Abstract

The present study reports on an urban and community agroforestry project implemented in 2016, in a square located in Campo Grande, West Zone of Rio de Janeiro. We observed the results and performed a survey of plant species used. Observations showed that the collective agroforestry system combined production with environmental recovery, thus making a socio-environmental contribution to the community who visit the square, live in its immediate vicinity and members of the agroforestry task force, by establishing a place for interaction between people and between people and nature. Therefore, community agroforestry has the potential to be a space for environmental education.
